"On this Christmas Eve as many New Yorkers begin to gather with family and friends we want to take a moment to recognize something truly special.

Across the state DOT employees also serve as firefighters EMTs and emergency responders in their communities ready to act whenever they are needed. Kevin Kalk a Highway Maintenance Supervisor [--] in Utica and Fire Chief in Barneveld rescued a stranded family from a flooded highway during severe storms while on DOT duty. He also led the evacuation of his firehouse moments before it"

Most of New York State is expected to see heavy snowfall beginning this afternoon into tomorrow morning with snowfall rates of [--] to [--] inches per hour. Some areas could see totals approaching a foot of snow by Saturday morning. When snow is falling this fast our crews will be out plowing and treating roads around the clock. Even so roads can become snow covered again just minutes after a plow passes. Travel may be difficult especially overnight. If you must travel: Slow down and leave extra space. Never pass an active snowplow and do"

"As this winter storm continues NYSDOT plow crews are out across the state clearing roadways and treating conditions to keep traffic moving as safely as possible. These photos show crews at work in Long Island Syracuse and Port Jervis part of a statewide response happening around the clock. Snow can quickly build back up after a plow passes so travel may remain challenging. If you must be on the road slow down leave plenty of space and never pass or crowd a working plow. #DontCrowdThePlow"

"Snow and ice response does not begin when the snow starts falling. It begins with preparation. In areas where heavier snow is expected tonight NYSDOT crews are already hard at work getting ready. At our Tioga Residency (pictured here) and at residenies across NYS teams are checking equipment fueling and loading trucks with salt and closely monitoring weather conditions so they are ready to respond as soon as conditions change. This behind-the-scenes preparation is what keeps crews moving and roads safer when winter weather arrives"

"❄🚧👷♂👷♀While you were sleeping our snow and ice crews were not Overnight snowfall was intense in some areas of New York State and NYSDOT crews were out plowing treating and monitoring roadways through the night. As the snow comes to an end this morning crews remain on the job clearing remaining snow widening shoulders and addressing slick spots. If you are heading out expect lingering winter conditions in some areas.

"A big thank you to snow and ice crews across New York State who worked through the night and continue cleanup efforts today to keep travelers moving. The storm may be over but these photos were too good not to share. 📷 Captured early this morning these images show NYSDOTs Duanesburg crew using echelon plowing during the overnight storm. It is a great example of the coordination and teamwork that go into clearing roadways safely and efficiently"

"WOW So youre bragging that they actually did the jobs they were hired to do Yes. 100%. And we will never stop. 👉We will brag about the men and women who plan months ahead maintain equipment year-round and report to work in the middle of the night while most of New York is sleeping. 👉We will brag about the crews who leave their homes and families during dangerous weather when guidance says everyone else should stay off the roads. 👉We will brag about the people who respond statewide not just to snowstorms but to flooding extreme heat hurricanes and every emergency in between.

"We hear it every time the snow falls. Ive been driving in snow my whole life. And yet every time it snows we still see plenty of seasoned drivers off the road. There may not be a major storm in the forecast right now but winter is very much in full swing across New York State. Slick pavement reduced visibility and surprise snow showers can catch anyone off guard. It never hurts to slow down give yourself extra space and brush up on winter driving basics. Experience is helpful but caution is what gets everyone home safely"

"Great Odins raven. this is a good-looking picture of snow removal in Chenango County. This is what happens after every snowfall - NYSDOT crews work around the clock to keep roads safe and New York moving. It takes planning preparation and long hours behind the scenes to make winter travel look this easy. We are proud of the crews who make it happen storm after storm. #DontCrowdThePlow Stay classy New York"

"All that trash tossed from vehicles during the winter does not disappear. It gets buried. Then it resurfaces in the spring along our highways shoulders ramps and medians. And here is the part that should matter to everyone: Every piece of garbage thrown from a window pulls our crews away from critical work. ➡Instead of repairing potholes. ➡Instead of maintaining bridges. ➡Instead of preparing for the next storm. They are picking up someone elses mess. That means taxpayer dollars and valuable crew time are being spent cleaning up preventable litter. 🛑STOP wasting our time. Keep your trash in"

"We see the same comments every time we post about a roundabout. They cause more crashes. Just put in a light. Get rid of them. No. Roundabouts are used because they are safer. Period. Fullstop Traditional intersections have [--] vehicle conflict points. Roundabouts have [--]. That is a 75% reduction in places where vehicles can collide. Fewer conflict points mean fewer crashes. And when crashes do happen they are lower speed and far less severe. This is not opinion. It is not a guess. It is decades of global national and state data. You do not have to like roundabouts. But they reduce serious"
