| Please do not rely solely
on the Travel Advisor to make decisions.
The Travel Advisor uses
existing ODOT information systems, such as traffic camera images, which
are updated every 10 minutes on average, and the ODOT/State Police road
report, which is updated several times daily during fall and winter.
Most of these data systems were not originally designed to serve an
Internet publishing system, so please be aware that the Travel Advisor
is an ongoing project.
Also, please remember
that road and weather conditions can change rapidly, that data sources
and transmissions sometimes falter, that Internet performance is
unpredictable, and that other factors beyond ODOT's control can affect
performance of this system. While ODOT strives to keep information
up-to-date, visitors to the site should judge its usefulness based on
the data's age, and still take it with a grain of salt.
Please note update times
with the camera images, road reports and weather forecasts to judge
their usefulness.
Decisions on where, when
and how to travel in Oregon should not be made based solely on the
information provided by this site or ODOT's telephone road information
service, as ODOT cannot guarantee it. Visitors acting on information
provided here do so under their own responsibility and at their own
risk. Common sense calls for travelers to gather information from
multiple sources for confirmation, to use judgment and to act in a
reasonable manner based on road, weather, traffic and other conditions.
These pages do not report
traffic accidents or other real-time incidents. Motorists should watch
for traffic restrictions, lane closures, detours and short delays. Watch
for signs, flaggers, and pilot cars, and please buckle up and drive
safely.
We hope you find this
service useful in getting around Oregon.
