DOTD’s emergency personnel will continue to monitor upcoming weather situations and will scout the area for safety on the roadways. In addition, DOTD crews will continue to apply brine/salt to bridges and overpasses as needed in addition to the pre-treatment that has already occurred.

DOTD reminds motorists that it is unsafe and unlawful to drive onto a closed road past a “road closed” barricade at any time for any reason. Drivers should avoid being on the roadways if travel is not absolutely necessary during inclement weather events.
