Oakland County’s plows and salt trucks: Ready for winter
This winter season that means purchasing 34 new trucks with more safety features to plow and salt the roads. Each truck costs an estimated $425,000 each, said Dennis Kolar, the road commission’s managing director, adding that the trucks cost nearly 200% more than 10 years ago and snow plow blades have doubled in price since 2004.
