Curious about one of the ways that Oxford starts preparing for winter weather?
The Butler County Engineer's Office ROADeo!
Drivers began the day last Thursday, October 27th with classroom training from BCEO Operations Deputy Scott Bressler and CDL Field Representative Jim Warner from the Ohio Department of Public Safety.
The ROADeo is a yearly refresher course on snow plow driver safety, as well as an opportunity for area townships and municipalities to come together to participate in friendly competitions. Drivers maneuvered through an obstacle course designed to simulate actual winter road situations, each vying for the best time and most accurate truck maneuvers.
Final preparations in the coming weeks will take place to refamiliarize operators/drivers with their routes, learn about new routes and preparing their trucks for the winter weather season!
Thanks to our friends at the Butler County Engineer's Office for hosting this event!
