Here in the Midwest, we exchange the icy highways of winter for the necessary frustration of road construction during the summer months.

Fortunately, there is information about winter driving conditions and road construction available on the same state web site. Before you head out on a driving tour of Nebraska, or if you want to keep up with the latest road construction in the Omaha-metro area this summer, visit http://doroads.nol.org/511. This helpful site has the same information that’s available by dialing the Nebraska traveler information number, 511. By visiting this site you could prevent an unpleasant surprise the next time you drive across Nebraska or, if you work in Omaha, your commute into work on Monday morning.

If you’re taking an out-of-state road trip this summer, you may want to visit these sites with information regarding construction in neighboring states.

Missouri  http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/trafficinfo/mo.htm
Kansas http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/trafficinfo/ks.htm

Minnesota

Colorado http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/trafficinfo/co.htm
Wyoming http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/trafficinfo/wy.htm

If you’re traveling through a state that isn’t listed, go to a web site with a search engine, such as Google, and search for “Road construction info in (insert the name of the state).” This should pull up links to web sites with the information you need.
