KNOW BEFORE YOU GO: Hundreds of construction projects are planned across the state this year and we're here to help you stay safe no matter where this holiday weekend or summer travel may take you.

Peak travel times are expected from 12-9 p.m. Thursday (May 21), 11 a.m.-8 p.m. Friday (May 22), and from 12-5 p.m. Monday, May 25.
