Vacation Travel
During summer vacation period, travelers should
expect to meet recreational vehicles on the
highway. Many of these travelers will be unfamiliar
with the local Highways and ‘may travel af o
slower pace, stopping to take advantage of the
many scenic views along the way. Please exercise
care and courtesy during these busy periods. Long
weekends are especially busy on the Highways,
‘extra caution and allowance for longer travel time
due to traffic congestion is required.
