Emerald Cedars

(Question)

We have emerald cedars planted along a drive way of a condo building. The space is about 2 ft deep and 20 ft long. The drive way is heavily used and is salted in winter. All the cedars along the driveway are now brown. What is causing them to die? Are they appropriate for a driveway?
