PennDOT Seeking Public Feedback on Winter Services

The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is seeking the public’s feedback on its services this winter through an online survey, which is open until April 14. All responses are anonymous, the agency stressed.

The 17-question survey asks respondents about their timeline expectations for safe and passable roadways, how they rank snow-removal priorities, and how they rate PennDOT’s winter services.

[Editor’s note: The Wyoming Department of Transportation recently provided a video overview of a new and larger snowplow that the agency designed to remove snow faster and more efficiently on WY Highway 59.]

Respondents are also asked how they receive PennDOT roadway information, and whether or how they use the state’s 511PA traveler information services. During the winter, www.511PA.com offers its standard traffic and incident information while adding PennDOT plow-truck locations, winter roadway conditions, and other services.

“I’m incredibly proud of how the PennDOT team met the mission across Pennsylvania this season, working around the clock to keep people and goods moving,” said Mike Carroll, PennDOT’s secretary, in a statement.

“The public’s input through this annual survey helps us review perceptions and knowledge of our operations, while we also look for public information opportunities,” he said.
