Tuesday, the IDOT renewed its call for qualified individuals to apply for seasonal position to help with snow-and-ice removal across the state.
The need for temporary snowplow drivers is part of the department's annual "Snowbird" program who respond to emerging weather situations for snow-and-ice removal and stay prepared to work in emergency conditions at any time.
"Snowbirds are a critical part of our overall effort to clear roads and keep Illinois moving during snow-and-ice season," said Acting Illinois Transportation Secretary Omer Osman. "Not only does the job perform an essential public service and ensure safe travel, but it's a great way to earn extra money during the winter months."
