FDOT Preparations for Hurricane Arrival in Central Florida

Posted on August 30, 2019

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has suspended interstate and state road lane closures in the Central Florida area due to the expected arrival of Hurricane Dorian. Lane closures may become necessary if needed for emergency work or continued hurricane prep.

Contractors on all construction projects are securing work sites, clearing traffic control devices that are not actively being used to direct traffic, and checking drainage systems.  All available lanes will remain open on the interstate system in Brevard, Flagler, Lake, Marion, Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Sumter, and Volusia counties.

When a hurricane is approaching, FDOT directs all road and bridge contractors to temporarily suspend all operations on construction projects.

Florida’s 511 Traveler Information System is one of the most effective ways drivers can keep informed about the state’s roadways during severe weather. Visit FL511.com or call 511 for real-time traveler information.

The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) urges all motorists to use caution when driving during storm conditions.
