Background
For this massive snow storm at the end of January, Arlington County deployed its crews, bolstered by dozens of contractors and the National Guard, in a four-phase approach to snow removal. This major operation included 250+ pieces of equipment, and crews working 12-hour shifts round-the-clock. It was a multiple day clean-up effort to get all streets cleared.
