CNN reports that a record number of Americans will be traveling this holiday season – about 65 million people between December 23 and January 2, more than the record 63.5 million who traveled last year, according to a survey by the Travel Industry Association and the AAA.
If you’ll be taking to the Wisconsin roads, you may want to check out the Department of Transportation’s Online Travel Center. You’ll find several interactive maps including a winter road condition report which indicates whether highways are in good driving condition, slippery in stretches, snow or ice covered. The map is updated four times per day.
Traveling outside of the state? See the National Traffic and Road Closure Information which links to road conditions for every state.
Thanks to my colleague, Sue Center, for the tip.
