As winter weather sweeps through Topeka and the surrounding areas, the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) has issued updates on road conditions and closures. Drivers are encouraged to check KDOT’s website or call 511 for the latest travel information.
Stay off the roads if possible, and if you must travel, exercise caution by reducing speed and allowing extra time for your commute. Snowplows are working hard to clear main routes, but secondary roads and residential streets may remain slick and hazardous.

Stay safe and warm, Topeka!
