Motorists traveling Nevada highways over the Thanks-giving holiday can receive instant, free information on road conditions with the Nevada Department Transportation's 511 Nevada Travel Info system.
Up-to-date conditions on Nevada roads, construction, weather and accident reports are available both by phone and online at www.nevada
dot.com.
Dial 511 toll free, 24 hours a day from within the state, then select the state route number for automated road conditions, weather forecasts, scheduled event road closures and construction updates.
Out-of-state callers can dial 1-877-NV-ROADS to receive the same information.
The road listings are also available under "511 Travel Info" at NDOT's www.nevada
dot.com Web site.
On the site, a Nevada road map zooms into the user's desired state travel route, with different icons detailing construction, accidents and weather closures.
Similar information is also available in easy-to-read text format. Online and by phone, users must select their chosen road by state route number.
Thanksgiving holiday travelers also can find winter driving safety tips on the department's Web site at nevadadot.com/winter.
