History and background

Paving

Fresh pavement removes cracks and wheel ruts where water can collect. This gives drivers an improved ride especially during heavy rain. Repaving preserves the highway structure and reduces the potential for costly emergency repairs.

Expansion joint repairs

Expansion joints run across the width of the highway. They allow for expansion and contraction with weather. They also flex under the weight of heavy vehicles. The work will reduce the chances a joint will break and need emergency closures.

Winter driving tips

Slow down on ice and snow.

It's easier to skid or lose control traveling at higher speeds. Give yourself more time to stop.

Carry chains, practice installing them.

Winter conditions could mean chains are required on your route. Practice putting them on your vehicle ahead of time.

Pack your winter car kit.

Carry extra supplies like warm clothing, ice scraper and brush, jumper cables and other emergency items.
