The Thanksgiving holiday is one of the busiest travel times of the year. The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) is reminding motorists to stay alert, arrive early, buckle up, and drive sober this holiday weekend. ODOT will be working to keep orange barrels at a minimum where possible, so drivers have an easier holiday commute.
“We will do our best to have lanes open throughout the state, but there are still work zones in some places, so plan accordingly to make sure you make it to your event on time,” said ODOT District 7 Deputy Director Randy Chevalley.
Drivers are also reminded to put down the distractions and focus on the road. There have already been more than 4,200 work zone related crashes this year. Please keep a clear distance from the car in front of you and allow plenty of time to get to your Thanksgiving celebration.
“Even one crash is one too many, and we want everyone to make it to their family gatherings safely, so we urge travelers to stay alert,” said ODOT District 8 Deputy Director Tammy Campbell.
In Southwest Ohio, drivers will see construction on Interstate 75 near Interstate 74 and I-75 near Sharon Road in the Cincinnati area. There will also be minimal construction on the I-75 ramps to US 35 in Dayton.
