State National Guard To Release Report On Interstate Gridlock

Thousands Stranded On Interstate During Winter Storm

Posted: 9:15 pm CST February 20, 2008

The Wisconsin National Guard is scheduled to discuss the state's response to a traffic backup that left thousands of motorists stranded for as long as 12 hours in a snowstorm.

TALKBACK: What Do You Think?

National Guard Brig. Gen. Don Dunbar will discuss the findings Thursday morning. The 164-page report will also be available online.

Gov. Jim Doyle had asked Dunbar to develop the report in response to the storm two weeks ago that dumped as much as a foot of snow.

A number of semitrailer trucks got stuck on a hill, causing miles of traffic to back up for hours.

The report will focus on communication between emergency responders, as well as on timely assessment of the situation and communication with the public.
