Patch has received several messages about icy road conditions all around the Village.

Public Works Director Jerry Weaver said that there are currently "10 salt trucks" all throughout the Village.

Harder hit areas, like Wolf Road, have had double applications of salt, said Weaver, and trucks are still in the area.

Oswego Police shut down parts of Wolf and Route 71/34 earlier due to the icy conditions, but they are now back open.

Please drive carefully this evening.
