How does a motorway engineering department deal with snow conditions? Find out in the video MKIF.
We have previously written about the operation of motorways and expressways operation of motorways and expressways based on information from MKIF – Magyar Koncessziós Infrastruktúra Fejlesztő Zrt., which operates a significant part of the domestic motorway network, or based on their posts on social media. The company has now published a video on Facebook and YouTube on an interesting topic that affects many people. rel="noopener">published a video on Facebook and YouTube.
They answer questions directly from the scene about how winter maintenance is carried out on motorway engineering projects.
As they write: all 20 engineers of MKIF are on standby throughout the year, but winter operations change their daily routine. In the recently published video, the crew visited Fonyód – the host of the road maintenance videos is Szecso Video – and observed the winter tasks of the dispatchers, rode along with the snow plough and showed how winter intervention takes place in real life.
Winter operations are not just about snowfall
Precise organisation and coordinated teamwork are required so that intervention can begin within half an hour, if necessary, they emphasised, adding that it is important to know that if anyone sees a machine on the track that is not currently spreading or raking, it is probably heading for its own section.
Winter operations are not just about snowfall. When temperatures drop below zero, salting begins, as the tracks – especially the bridges – can freeze quickly. The night is unpredictable: one round may be enough, but sometimes it is necessary to start again at dawn, they emphasise at the end of the post.
