Wisconsin's 511 Traveler Information System now available online

Enhanced services visually display winter road conditions, incidents, construction and more

Motorists can now get up-to-the-minute travel information by either dialing 511 or going to a new

Web site offered by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. The Web site,

www.511wi.gov, provides travelers with traffic and road information on Wisconsin's main

highways, including the Interstate system.

 

511 also provides a feature that allows all users, or only users in a targeted area, to hear a

message about special conditions that may affect their travel or to receive an AMBER Alert.

Individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing can access and use the entire 511 system through

the Wisconsin Relay Service, which is available by dialing 711, and asking the operator to dial

the alternate toll-free number: 866/511-WISC (9472). That number is also available to users

whose cell phone provider doesn't offer direct access to 511.
