How soon after a snowfall do plowing and salting operations begin?

Anti-icing begins days before a snowfall, with the application of salt brine and beet juice. Once the snow starts falling, Public Works typically begins plowing operations after about a half inch of snow has fallen or sooner if road condition reports indicate the need. Public Works aim to have all streets cleared within 8 hours after the snow stops falling.
