ODOT announces winners of snowplow naming contest

Snowplow Naming Contest (Oklahoma Department of Transportation)

The Oklahoma Department of Transportation turned to school kids to name their snowplows.

ODOT said nearly 400 names were submitted and more than 2,100 votes were cast statewide.

The winning names will appear on ODOT’s online snowplow tracker.

“We were so impressed by the creativity and enthusiasm Oklahoma students showed in this contest,” said Caitlyn Carolus, contest manager and ODOT Traffic Operations Center Program Manager. “Our crews work long hours in tough winter conditions to keep highways safe for the traveling public, and this contest is a fun way to recognize their dedication while connecting students and families to the important work they do.”
