Real-Time Traveler Information

Planning A Trip?

Your first stop should be the National Traffic & Road Closure Information Web site.

Information to the Traveler

Map of the United States, Featured State: Ohio

Featured State: Ohio

The Ohio Department of Transportation recently revised its BuckeyeTraffic.org Web site to incorporate interactive maps and consolidate much of the State's traveler information into one place. Users may choose to view information such as road closures, construction, winter weather conditions or traffic cameras either statewide or regionally.

Each month, we will feature a state that gives the Traveler Information for all sorts of travel on our surface transportation network. If you have a question about the state or would like information on another state, please see the National Traffic & Road Closure Information Web site or send an email to Bob Rupert.
