We had a great discussion, lunch, and photos. The results from our employee survey were available to the public. Our "Floridian" had to step out into the snow! LOL. The team will be back in June and August.

Lakeshore Drive from M‑123 to Salt Point Road is now passable.

Please use caution, as blowing and drifting snow may still be present in some areas.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Please be advised that Lakeshore Drive from M‑123 to Salt Point is CLOSED due to heavy blowing and drifting snow. Drifts are currently 8–10 feet across the roadway in some areas. Our crews are working to get the road opened, but the high winds are not working in our favor at this time. We appreciate your patience and ask that you avoid this area until further notice for your safety.
