Roadside planting

I am considering planting red and yellow twig dogwoods along the roadside as a living fence and to prevent erosion of the slope. My house is below road grade. However, I am concerned about winter plowing and road salt. Are these plants sturdy enough for high snow accumulation? I just removed 10 dead arbor vitae from the site I wish to replant.
