  1. 10PM UPDATE
    The Bryan District of TxDOT is monitoring conditions and pretreating some areas, but it is just cold and wet, no ice yet. Looks like the most of the falling moisture is moving east out of the Bryan District.

    If you don’t have to travel tonight, DON’T! If you do, please slow down and drive to the conditions. We will keep you all posted on any updates.

    Sleet, ice and freezing rain can create extremely dangerous driving conditions, which is why the Texas Department of Transportation strongly advises drivers to stay off the roads as much as possible. If drivers must be on the road, please remember to:
    · Reduce speed

    · Increase following distance

    · Use extra caution on bridges, ramps, overpasses

    · Stay back at least 200 feet from vehicles treating or clearing roadways

    · If you start to slide, ease off the gas pedal or brakes and steer in to direction of skid

    · Avoid unnecessary travel

    Also, refer all road condition inquiries to:
    · TxDOT’s toll-free highway condition line at (800)-452-9292
