Here's how to check city, state and interstate road conditions

Indiana Department of Transportation

As south central Indiana digs out from the deluge of snow, the Indiana Department of Transportation offers online help for motorists who want to check on road conditions.

The site, 511in.org, includes camera views at fixed locations and on snow plows.

Bloomington had more than 10 inches of snow over the weekend.

The city has a site for reporting issues, including the need for plowing.

A Facebook group called Bloomington, IN Roads has posts from people reporting on road conditions.

The city's snow plow routes are available here.

Adam Wason, Bloomington's director of the Department of PublicWorks, said there are no gps or camera systems due to budget limitations.

For local weather-related issues, the city advises residents to file a request at the city's website.

The city also has a Facebook page for updates on road clearings during bad weather.

Wason said INDOT is responsible for larger areas like I-69 and State Road 45/46. Monroe County handles other state roads.

Travel safety alerts are decided by the Monroe County Emergency Management Agency, local law enforcement, public safety officials, and road crews.

As of Monday morning, Monroe County was in the red zone, which means advice to the public is not to drive.

WFIU/WTIU News is an independent newsroom rooted in public service.

“Act Independently” is one of the basic creeds of journalism ethics, and we claim it proudly. The WFIU/WTIU News facilities are located on the campus of Indiana University, which does hold our broadcast license and contribute funding to our organization. However, our journalists and senior news leaders have full authority over journalistic decisions — what we decide to cover and how we tell our stories. We observe a clear boundary: Indiana University and RTVS administrators focus on running a strong and secure organization; WFIU/WTIU journalists focus on bringing you independent news you can trust.
