Colorado DOT Research Program is interested in addressing some concerns expressed by maintenance personnel regarding slippery road conditions that may develop after conducting anti-icing treatments prior to a forecasted winter storm. WTI is currently conducting a research project looking at road friction after deicing during winter storms. This project will enable additional field trials, and provide an opportunity to measure friction after anti-icing applications.
OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this project is to investigate road friction after deicing during winter storms.
