From the City of Wichita Falls:
City of Wichita Falls crews from several Departments responded to this morning's snow and icy roads. Street crews hit the road at 7am with three sand trucks to spread chat on busy intersections, hills, overpasses and on and off ramps.
The Traffic Engineering Division responded to several "sign down" calls and will be working to replace those signs as well as a street pole and signal pole that were also knocked down.
The Sanitation Division will delay curbside trash collection for an hour and a half to give residential streets time to thaw. Collection should begin at 10:30am.
Kickapoo Airport is open. Municipal airport is open. The first flight scheduled for departure from Municipal this morning was delayed by an hour-and-a-half. Fliers are encouraged to contact American Eagle at 1-800-433-7300 to confirm arriving and departing flight times.
Public Transportation is running on the normal schedule but pickup times can be delayed slightly. Riders are advised to arrive at their stops at the regularly scheduled times
For more information please contact the Public Information Office at 761-7401.
