When driving in winter road conditions, 511 is a public service of the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) which was designated in July 2000 by the Federal Trade Commission (FCC) to provide travelers with information about road conditions and weather via phone, the Web or by smartphone.<\/p>\n

ITD field crews provide information to update the system.\u00a0 Additional information is received from the National Weather Service, Ada County Highway District, citizen reports and the Road Weather Information System.\u00a0 511 is treated as a local call and most cell phones will connect; however, there may be places where reception is poor which prevents or hinders access.<\/p>\n

Police and ITD encourage motorists to use caution and increase travel time to reach your destinations.\u00a0 ISP reports that many weather-related accidents occurred within the past two weeks.\u00a0 ISP troopers handled various crashes, slide offs and assisted many motorists who became stranded due to harsh weather.\u00a0 Weather conditions can change rapidly so always be prepared prior to your commute or trip.\u00a0 Have a passenger call 511 or pull off to a safe spot and place the call yourself.<\/p>\n
