Chloride is a top pollutant of concern in most cold climates and deicing salt is the main culprit. For decades, winter maintenance professionals have been trained to reduce the amount of salt in winter operations; however, they cannot solve this problem alone. Realizing help is needed, we developed LSiD™—a set of design guidelines focused on improved winter performance. These design concepts can be easily incorporated into all infrastructure projects, saving your bottom line by reducing winter maintenance effort, salt costs, infrastructure damage, and environmental impacts.

We are designing easier to plow surfaces with better snow storage capabilities. By directing meltwater away from critical braking and pedestrian zones, outsmarting the winter wind, and using the sun to our advantage. We take pride in advancing sustainable solutions for our communities. Our LSiD™ strategies offer cost savings, improved safety, and reduced environmental concerns for all seasons.
