Snow plow drivers keep area residents moving

HARTINGTON — City, county and state workers have already logged quite a few hours moving snow since the first snow flake flew on the winter season back in October.

When the weather becomes nasty and driving becomes difficult, snowplow drivers are out clearing roads, assisting in emergencies and trying to keep the roads open and safe throughout the 740 square miles known as Cedar County.  

Cedar County Commission Chairman Dave McGregor said the county road crews work hard to keep equipment up and ready when needed.
