Track the plow

Highway travellers in Saskatchewan can now track the location of snow plows in that province on a realtime map, the department of highways announced last week.

The “Highway Hotline” internet site that provides weather and road conditions now shows active progress of 50 snow plows fitted with GPS units. The pilot program can provide up to two hours of data on each, according to a release.
