PennDOT is asking some dangerous questions for a much-maligned state agency. The transportation department wants public feedback via an online survey on its winter performance.

The 10-question survey asks how often respondents travel during poor weather, how they
rate PennDOT’s winter service, and how they rank snow-removal priorities. Respondents are also asked how they receive PennDOT roadway information, and whether or how they use the state’s 511PA traveler information services.

“We are proud of our winter operations and communications,” PennDOT Secretary Leslie
Richards said in a statement.. “This survey will help measure public expectations and identify educational opportunities.”
