In a Tuesday morning tweet, Caltrans said maintenance crews would be preparing for the storm by spreading brine along the I-15.
According to the tweet, the work began on the SB-15 at Oak Hill Road and will end at the 215/15 interchange in Devore. Once the southbound side is complete work will start on the northbound side back up to Oak Hill Road.
