Could more snow fencing along Highway 400 have prevented Thursday's 98-vehicle crash, or at least mitigated the storm's impact?
Bruce Holtom, owner of FenceSource in Barrie, says it would be worth trying.
Snow fence is and has always been very effective. The higher the snow fence, the more snow it will grab, he said Friday. In most years, in most applications, one stretch of four-foot-high fencing does a good job.
You really do get lulled into a false sense of security when you have three or four mild winters, and all of a sudden it gets like this.
This clearly isn't like most winters. Just entering March there are already near-record snowfall levels in the Barrie area.
Thursday's squalls brought not only snow but gusting winds to the area, creating white-outs that led to the early morning, chain-reaction crashes on the 400.
Gary Lyon of Barrie said they might have been prevented.
Perhaps it would have made no difference in this case, but why has MTO not investigated putting up wind barriers along these open stretches of (Highway) 400? he asked. The greenest option would be trees, but something like the noise barriers you see along 400-series highways might help. Has this ever been studied?
The MTO, of course, is Ontario's Transportation Ministry, which is responsible for all things connected to the 400-series highways (see pullout).
Years ago we used to see a lot more snow fence installed than we do these days, Holtom said. Everybody's watching budgets (today), and we've had some milder winters.

Verdict
Victor Hewgo has taken well to fences and was just caught by Cheltenham-bound Holywell over course and distance 10 days ago. Despite his penalty, he'll be tough to beat again but COWARDS CLOSE could flourish now tackling fences as he's already a winner between the flags. He was well backed over hurdles here on his reappearance and can recoup losses now. My Dads Horse was a long way behind Victor Hewgo over a shorter trip here in January and Perfect Candidate was due to run at Newbury yesterday.
Perfect Candidate (IRE) 33-1 (11-0) Held up towards rear, outpaced before 5 out, stayed on from last, nearest at finish, 4th of 7, 10l behind Victor Hewgo (11-0) at Doncaster 3m nov chs (4) gs in Jan.
Victor Hewgo 5-2 (11-7) Tracked leaders in 3rd, went 2nd at 2nd, ridden before 3 out, led last, kept on and headed towards finish, 2nd of 5, 3/4l behind Holywell (11-7) at Doncaster 3m nov chs (4) gs in Feb.
Cowards Close (IRE) 3-1fav (10-11) Chased leaders, chance 3 out, weakened approaching next, 7th of 11, 17l behind Mister Dillon (10-11) at Doncaster 3m hcp hdl 0-140 (3) gs in Dec.
My Dads Horse 20-1 (10-12) last of 5, well behind Western Warhorse (10-12) at Doncaster 2m 3f nov chs (3) gs in Jan.

Scoresheet
BARTONVILLE, Texas - The SMU equestrian team improved to 4-1 at home with an 11-9 (1425-1361.5) victory over No. 8 TCU on Saturday afternoon at Sleepy P Ranch. Junior Emma Roberts (flat), freshman Sylvia de Toledo (fences) and freshman Jaclyn White (horsemanship) turned in MOP rides.
Roberts improved to 3-1 on the flat in the spring, after cracking the lineup over the break. The Mustang junior added a fences victory for her second-straight two-point performance. Roberts' victory over fences was her fourth of the 2013-14 campaign. Sophomore Schaefer Raposa also did the double on Saturday, recording a 68-64 flat victory and an 83-78 fences win.
On the western side, freshmen Morgan Redwine and Jaclyn White turned in two-point afternoons. Redwine's double is the second of her young career.
The Mustangs grabbed four points on the flat, also getting victories from senior Julianna Fischer (63-53) and sophomore Alex Butterworth (76-70). SMU also won fences by a count of 3-2, getting points from de Toledo (83-76), Raposa (83-78) and Roberts (84-80).
SMU got four points out of the two western events on Saturday. In horsemanship, Redwine defeated TCU's Rylee Morgan 70.5-66, while White's MOP earned her a 74 in her one-point win. On the reining side, Redwine tallied a 61.5, while White edged TCU's Chantz Stewart 67-66.5.
The Mustangs will now await the bracket for the 2014 NCEA Championships that will be held in Waco, Texas, from April 17-19.

New locker rooms and restrooms will be built at the Corona del Mar High School pool, just one of many back-burner projects benefiting from extra city funding recently made available.
The $338,000 contribution to the Newport-Mesa Unified School District, requested by City Manager Dave Kiff, draws from higher-than-expected revenues in Newport Beach this fiscal year, coupled with last year's budget surplus.
The City Council on Tuesday appropriated more than $14 million to help pay for a wide array of improvements throughout the city, such as the locker rooms.
Most of the money $12 million came from a revenue surplus in the general fund in fiscal year 2012-13.
Another $1.2 million came from other funds like the IT strategic, lifeguard headquarters and tidelands funds, according to a staff report.
Of the $2.82 million in increased revenue estimates, the city appropriated $1.1 million. The money came from increased property tax estimates, plus more sales and hotel bed taxes from an improved economy.
The funding, which had not yet been given a specific budgetary use, will contribute to a wide array of needs, including a general liability fund, retiree health insurance and city improvement projects.
Municipal projects that will benefit include expansion of the LED streetlight conversion, Ocean Boulevard pavement replacement and concrete alley replacement in Newport Heights. Reforestation efforts and park re-landscaping will also get extra support.
The Fire Department will receive funding for paramedic emergency services, lifeguard dispatch equipment and facilities maintenance.
"The council has made it clear to me that they want to see more and more money going back into the community, so that's what I'm proposing to do with almost all of the surplus and the increased revenue," Kiff wrote in an email last week.

Last week, I wrote about the annual Wild Ones conference on designing with native plants and the ideas of speaker Douglas Owens-Pike, founder of EnergyScapes, a St. Paul-based landscape and garden design business that Owens-Pike launched in 1989.
In those days, Martha Stewart was in charge of matters of taste, indoors and out. Her gardens combined traditional English flower borders with the more formal perfectionism of the French and Italian style, all clipped parterres and geometric shapes.
In the glossy pages of Martha Stewart Living and the comparably impeccable Garden Design magazine, the trend to a more relaxed aesthetic became evident in the '90s, as more of the gardens featured native prairie plants and grasses and more of the gardeners credited organic methods for their success.
There seemed to be less emphasis on chemicals and more on how to make compost.
We were advised to mulch our beds and let the organic matter decompose to feed the soil. We were told to ditch the leaf-bag attachment on lawn mowers and let the grass clippings stay put.
As to design, why slavishly copy European gardens? Why not implement an American style?
Garden design has always swung between man's penchant for controlling nature and nature's genius at painting the land with flora that suits the climate and topography and meets the needs of wildlife.
Owens-Pike all along had focused on the plants. An ecologist by training, he believed healthy native soils are best suited for growing healthy native plants.
The plants have a twofold purpose: They beautify the Earth because they are renewing it.
I've often wondered, what exactly is "healthy" soil?
