Presumably they don't let a 40 feet of snow or whatnot accumulate at once. If they just clear 1-2 feet of snow every night all that involves is having a plow that can throw up the snow high enough to the sides and out of the way, which seems plausible. I say this because I presume clearing 40 feet of snow is rather impossible.
- hourislate 10y agoI think they were referring to a road that is not plowed all winter and in the spring they send in the bulldozer to clear an initial path until a snowblower can handle it. >The first bulldozers will push and carry the snow forward, to areas where depths are lower and it can be pushed aside or dumped. Backhoes are used to help widen the road. When the bulldozers have come within six feet or less of the road, the rotary blowers can begin their work, and help to at last reveal the long buried asphalt.
