The Virginia Department of Transportation said Aug. 1 it has updated its 511 road-information system to include improvements suggested by users.
VDOT said it added improved voice-recognition software, a better menu structure to make traffic information easier to find and new features such as bridge and tunnel information.
Truck and passenger-car drivers can call the phone number to get current information about road conditions, construction delays and other incidents that affect their travels, VDOT said.
