City crews in Portland were doing their best to keep the roads clear as the price tag from the week-long storm continued to grow.

Mayor-elect Sam Adams said Monday that the storm is costing the city about $150,000 a day.

Crews are working 12-hour shifts just trying to keep up. In Portland alone, 92 trucks were on the roads plowing and de-icing.

Adams said the Bureau of Transportation is taxed but they are hanging in there, but the city is getting low on de-icer.

They had about 1,700 gallons left Monday but a train carrying more de-icer was scheduled to arrive Monday or Tuesday.

Adams said the city's focus is keeping people safe but it is impossible to ignore that this storm has cost upward of $800,000 at a time when Portland is already struggling financially.

"This is on top of $48 million of budget cuts over the past few years. We have not been able to keep up with the cost of just repairing the roads. This just makes matter worse," Adams said.

Twelve streets were still closed in Portland on Monday and city leaders said drivers should use chains around town.

Adams also urged people to get out and walk to stores if they could because retailers are hurting this year and the storm is only making the problem worse.
