Dangerous driving conditions in Central South Dakota

Pierre, SD - South Dakota Department of Transportation officials advise that areas of low visibility and drifting snow along I-90 and surrounding highways in central South Dakota are making travel conditions hazardous.

Increasing wind is causing drifting at bridge ends and in sheltered areas, as well as zero to near zero visibility. Other highways in South Dakota are experiencing similar conditions and drivers are urged to slow down and use extreme caution.

“I strongly encourage people who must travel to visit www.safetravelusa.com or call 511 to check the latest road conditions and travel advisories before heading out,” said Greg Fuller, Director of Operations. “Keep in mind that visibility and road conditions can change rapidly as the storm passes through the South Dakota.”
