Road Transportation plays an important role in national economy, however, the non-short term snowing let non-easy automatic melting ice and snow cover the winter road. The technology for snow and ice control, as well as reasonable maintenance operations are key factors to swiftly, comfortably, safe traffic and national economy for one country. This paper cites the research literatures and research reports at home and abroad, introduces the corresponding research progress and gives a sound comments based on prevention and control, technology and operations for winter road snow and ice control. Through the comments, all related researchers and road industries can look the summary as a good reference for their further research on winter road snow and ice control, as well maintenance operations.
