WSDOT Field Guide for Accessible Public Rights of Way
This field guide has been developed by WSDOT, in collaboration with FHWA, as a reference to be used by professionals when evaluating accessible pedestrian features in the Public Rights-of-Way. It reflects the Public Right of Way Accessible Guidelines (PROWAG) developed by the US Access Board.
Slow down on ice and snow.
It's easier to skid or lose control traveling at higher speeds. Give yourself more time to stop.
Carry chains, practice installing them.
Winter conditions could mean chains are required on your route. Practice putting them on your vehicle ahead of time.
Pack your winter car kit.
Carry extra supplies like warm clothing, ice scraper and brush, jumper cables and other emergency items.
