More than 60 Indiana counties under travel restrictions Monday

INDIANAPOLIS — Most Indiana counties had some level of travel restrictions in place Monday as a result of the winter storm that hit the Hoosier state late last week.

Only nine of Indiana’s 92 counties were without travel restrictions as of 2:45 p.m.: Cass, Blackford, Dubois, Henry, Marion, Parke, Posey, Randolph, Shelby, Vigo, Vermillion.

Much of the state remains in the yellow “advisory” category, meaning that routine travel or activities may be restricted and travelers should use caution or avoid those areas.

A handful of counties are in the orange “watch” category, meaning that conditions are threatening the safety of the public. Only essential travel, such as to and from work and in emergency situations, is recommended.

No Indiana counties are in the red “warning” category, which forbids travel for everyone except for emergency workers.
