How Wayne, N.J., solved its winter salt storage problem: From asphalt pad to truss arch building
The Department of Public Works in the Township of Wayne, NJ was storing its road salt on an asphalt pad, covered with a large tarp, according to Public Works Director George Holzapfel, a practice that was not only inconvenient in severe weather, but also sometimes hazardous. “The tarp had to be removed for access before, or sometimes during, snow or ice events, neither of which was a pleasure for the employees,” Holzapfel said. “During non-winter periods winds often blew the tarps off, which then had to be reinstalled. Handling large tarps in windy conditions had to be undertaken with extreme caution…again, a task no one liked,” he added. ,The Department of Public Works in the Township of Wayne, NJ was storing its road salt on an asphalt pad, covered with a large tarp, according to Public Works Director George Holzapfel, a practice that was not only inconvenient in severe weather, but also sometimes hazardous. “The tarp had to be removed for access before, or sometimes during, snow or ice events, neither of which was a pleasure for the employees,” Holzapfel said. “During non-winter periods winds often blew the tarps off, which then had to be reinstalled.
