ILLINOIS STATE
POLICE DISTRICT 9 REPORT
As expected, road
conditions in District 9 have already started to
deteriorate. Officers have responded to numerous
property damage crashes, as well as cars sliding
off the roadways.
Road conditions in Logan County are especially
slick and hazardous. ISP is asking you
to stay off the roadways, and only travel if it
is an emergency.
Lieutenant Jody Huffman
Acting District 9 Commander
Illinois State Police – District 9 |
While
the best answer for the next few days may be to stay
home, work remotely if possible, and stay warm and safe,
it is realized that that is just not possible for some
of us. We have to try to get to our jobs.
For those who must travel today and tomorrow, the
Illinois Department of Transportation offers some
helpful advice in two graphics.
Please, be safe out there
today. Dress appropriately and be careful if you must
drive, and be SURE to have an emergency kit to keep you
safe if you get stuck in the snow.
