December is drawing to a close and the holidays are in full swing. Countless Arizonans are traveling to gather with family and friends, and it’s a great time to remind motorists about safe driving practices.

If you’re out on the highways this week, you may notice holiday-themed traffic safety messages on our overhead message signs leading up to Christmas and Hanukkah. 

This episode of On the Road With ADOT features Anthony Casselman, who is relatively new in his role as administrator for ADOT's Southcentral District. He chats with Doug Nintzel about what a district administrator does, how ADOT's maintenance and construction districts operate, and large improvement projects underway and planned in his district. 

Couches, fridges, mattresses, oh my!

These aren’t just high-dollar items on sale this holiday season — they’re the objects that we see frequently dropped on highways because they weren’t secured properly. Sometimes these appliances and furniture are brand new, going home from the store.
