The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) released a traveler information app using the Android
operating system earlier today. Prior to the 2013-2014 winter season, they will release the South Dakota 511 app for iPhone
devices as well.
This FREE app provides the same
information as SDDOT’s popular SafeTravelUSA website, but in a compatible
format with mobile phones. Current information on road conditions, highway
closures, travel advisories, construction projects and incidents affecting
travel is available on all interstate, U.S. and state highways.
Download it from the Google Play
app store by searching for “SDDOT 511” or access it at https://play.google.com/store/search?q=SDDOT+511&c=apps.
SDDOT also
maintains a Twitter feed, @SDClearPath511, start following them today after you download the mobile app!
