Winter Weather Driving

Massachusetts is no stranger to winter weather. From learning how to shovel your driveway to learning about snow plows, make sure you are prepared for whatever may happen while on the road.

Every winter brings special challenges to both drivers and to MassDOT. Whether it be snow or ice, as a driver you need to be prepared. You can learn about how we help maintain safe roadway conditions and what you can do to drive safe, no matter the weather. Avoid driving during winter storms unless it is absolutely necessary. If you must travel, consider taking public transportation.
