We had a small snow event early this morning. We laid down 325 tons of salt that cost of about $16,250.

Our trucks get about 5 mpg and we have 734 lane miles so we went through about 150 to 200 gallons of diesel.

We ran for about three hours from 4 am until 7 am. All told, overtime, fuel and salt cost us about $150,000.

That works out to about $350 per lane mile. A mile of our roadway averages about 2.35 lanes, so that works out to about $825 per centerline mile to clear just under an inch of snow.
