Caltrans urges drivers to follow all construction zone speed limits and to drive with extreme caution as work continues.

To ensure your safety and that of our crews, please follow these Caltrans guidelines when traveling:

Prepare Your Vehicle:Make sure brakes, windshield wipers, defroster, heater, and exhaust systems are in good working order. Proper maintenance is essential for safe driving in wet and low-visibility conditions.

Check Your Tires:Verify tire pressure and tread depth for optimal traction on wet surfaces.

Use Headlights in Rain:California law requires headlights during rain to improve visibility for yourself and other drivers.

Slow Down and Increase Following Distance:Wet roads increase stopping distances. Give yourself extra space to stop safely and reduce your speed as conditions dictate.

Avoid Sudden Lane Changes:Limited visibility can make lane markers difficult to see. Keep steady in your lane and avoid abrupt moves to maintain control on slick roads.
