SOUTH-CENTRAL, Ind. – With winter weather already at our doorstep, Indiana Governor Mike Braun joined the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), Indiana State Police (ISP), and the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) at a conference on Monday to outline the state’s coordinated efforts to keep Hoosiers safe this winter.

This is Winter Weather Preparedness Week, and operations were discussed, with the state’s snow and ice removal fleet also inspected.

In recent months, INDOT Southeast, which serves Bartholomew, Johnson, Jackson, Jennings, Decatur, and Brown Counties, has been preparing for winter operations. The agency has hired seasonal snowplow drivers, completed training with current staff, inspected trucks and other equipment, and secured materials, such as salt.
