ABSTRACT:
Some embodiments of the present invention provide a snow plow blade gate apparatus and method in which the gate is pivotably attached to an end of a snow plow blade. The gate can be pivotable between a deployed position in which the gate blocks snow from exiting the snow plow blade to a stowed position in which at least part of the gate is moved to a location behind the snow plow blade. In some embodiments, the gate pivots about an axis skewed with respect to a substantially vertical plane. Also, some embodiments of the present invention have an actuator that can be actuated to secure the gate in a deployed position.
