COBB COUNTY, GA — In Cobb County, crews are treating the roads ahead of the snow.
Cobb County’s DOT Director Drew Raessler says they’ll be out putting down brine through Saturday morning. They’re treating more than 560 miles of thoroughfares maintained by Cobb DOT.
“We will continue pretreating roads with a brine solution through early Saturday morning, then respond to conditions as they develop,” Raessler said. “While we’re hopeful this will be a shorter event, our crews are prepared to respond as needed.”
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp declared a State of Emergency on Friday morning ahead of the winter storm as the state prepares for another winter weather system this weekend.
The county is asking residents to avoid traveling once the snow moves in.
