1043, we got that jackknife semi out of the way.
00:03
They're off on the side, getting things readjusted.
00:06
You have one lane open and moving traffic out of here.
00:11
Make sure we don't have another scene back of ways.

00:30
10-7[2], probably my right.
00:35
01, clear.
00:36
I've made my way to the 11.
00:38
Have someone, if you got someone there to spare,
00:41
pace them. It's snow-covered, completely snow-covered, well,
00:46
at least to the 11, and probably past that.
00:48
I would pace them all the way to stay line.
00:51
It's completely snow-covered in both lanes.
00:56
311-10-8[1] mileage.

01:09
Go ahead, 19.
01:11
Are we good to open it up here at the 23 and slow roll them up there to the back of?
01:17
Um,
01:20
I would, as long as someone is slow rolling them, we can probably do that, but we need to double check, make sure we have nothing else between where you're at and the crash scene about the 16.
01:36
191. Let's dump the backed up traffic like 3 said.
01:40
Let's dump all the traffic that's backed up for seven miles.
01:43
Get highway to get on it with some salt.
01:46
And then we'll let you guys lower up from that location.
01:51
19 is clear.
01:58
1939. I was just checking see if you guys needed a break to switch out.

02:09
Maybe here in a few.
02:11
I spoke with an NDOT supervisor down here.
02:14
They're staging those salt trucks just west of the 23 for when we get all the traffic cleared out from the backup, and then they're going to make a few passes through there to get it all cleaned off.
02:27
So just hold your traffic there.
02:30
No traffic westbound so they get that cleaned up.
02:33
I'm clear.
