Dearborn County, IN – Drivers across Dearborn County can resume normal travel today after county officials lifted the “yellow” travel advisory, signaling improved road and weather conditions.
According to the Dearborn County Board of Commissioners, the advisory was lifted effective immediately, returning the county to normal travel status. The update was shared publicly by the Dillsboro Volunteer Fire Department early today.
A yellow travel advisory is typically issued when conditions may be hazardous in some areas due to weather, visibility, or road conditions, but travel is still permitted. Officials lift the advisory once conditions stabilize and widespread hazards are no longer present.
The change affects all communities within Dearborn County, including Dillsboro and surrounding rural roadways, which may have experienced slick or reduced-travel conditions earlier. While normal travel status has been restored, drivers are still encouraged to use caution, especially on secondary roads and shaded areas where lingering issues can develop.
Indiana residents can always check the latest statewide travel advisories by county through the Indiana Department of Homeland Security’s official website at in.gov/dhs/traveladvisory. Travel statuses can change quickly based on weather and road conditions.
Local emergency officials remind motorists to slow down, allow extra stopping distance, and stay alert for crews or debris, particularly following recent advisory periods.
