Construction Activities Suspended over Holiday Weekend

Chipley- To ease traffic congestion and insure safety along the roadways in Northwest Florida, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has directed construction contractors working on state roads to cease operations during the Labor Day weekend.  There will be no work on state roads requiring lane restrictions from Friday, September 2 through Monday, September 5. All major roads in will be open to normal traffic.

Motorists are reminded to use caution while traveling through work zones around barricades and equipment on current projects. Travelers can access Florida’s 511 service from cell phones and landlines, and the Internet at www.FL511.com to receive updates on travel in the area.
