Marshall County Emergency Management Agency Jack Garner said at 8:15 Monday morning that, effective immediately, Marshall County had returned to normal travel status.
A Travel Advisory was issued on February 12th due to a wintry mix bringing snow, sleet, and freezing rain to Marshall County. Smaller snow events continued over the last eleven days, prolonging poor road conditions. Marshall County opted to keep its travel advisory in place.
With high winds and extremely cold temperatures, blowing and drifting caused headaches. Plowed roads quickly became overrun with blown snow, which turned to ice on the bare pavement.
Warmer weather has prevailed this week and caused the remaining ice and snow to melt rapidly. Road conditions have improved and warrant a return to normal travel.
Garner said, "Thank you to INDOT, the Marshall County Highway Department, and the municipal street departments for their hard work during this frustrating weather. Also, thank you to public safety officials who responded to traffic incidents on slippery roads."
