Salt<br />
Governmental De-icing Market – North America<br />
The public safety and economic benefits of road salt use are clear.<br />
• Winter weather congestion affects 70% of U.S. roadways.<br />
• Roadway de-icing reduces crash frequency by 88.3 percent.<br />
• De-icing decreases the average cost of each crash by 10 percent.<br />
• During the first four hours after salt is applied, the direct road users’ benefits<br />
(i.e. increased mobility, productivity & hourly worker compensation) are $6.50<br />
for every $1.00 spent.<br />
• A one-day major snowstorm can cost a state $300-$700 million in both direct<br />
and indirect costs (i.e. reduction in commerce & associated tax revenue).<br />
