How to fix ice road? Apply cold water. Smooth slush and snow with scraper blade. Inspect in 24hrs. Repeat if required.

In all seriousness, there are parts of Canada where the trucking companies run 18-wheeler semi trailer trucks on the frozen lakes to haul fuel, cargo and building materials to isolated communities, diamond and gold mines, and oil rigs. This winter the season was only 6 weeks long for one particular road in Manitoba. That is about 800km (500mi) north of Winnipeg.
