Crews responded quickly,
without complaints
Idaho Transportation Department maintenance
supervisor,
On Wednesday, Jan. 7, we had yet another day
of poor weather conditions in the valley. Officers were requesting
sand and plows all morning at different locations.
The ITD trucks working Interstate 84 did a great
job keeping the sand down and the roads plowed.
I understand some areas were requesting sand
and plows more than others, and at times there were more than
one request for the same area. The drivers did not complain,
to my knowledge, but responded to each call as quick as the
conditions allowed.
Will you pass this on to the ITD supervisor
and let him know we appreciate his plow drivers.

Roadside assistance
much appreciated
Idaho Transportation Department,
On Dec. 26, 2003, we had a flat tire on the highway from
Macks Inn to Ashton. The nicest, most helpful gentleman
from the Highway Dept. ran interference for us with his flashing
lights, orange jacket, etc. while we changed the tire on a
dangerous road in heavy snow.
We just want to thank him and all those at the department
for their selfless service.
