(I-TravelNewswire.Com, February 16, 2014 ) Houston, Texas -- Governor Mary Fallin of Oklahoma has declared a state of emergency because the Lexington-Purcell Bridge has been closed down. It was found to have a lot of physical damages which makes it unfit for drivers to use. It was deemed unsafe and has officially been closed. The governor stated that there will be assistance for the reparation of the bridge.
Because of the bridge closure, detours have been arranged which require forty miles of extra travel distance. Emergency responders will be greatly affected by the detours which may prolong the response action. Due to this issue, residents are advised to use glow sticks that can help drivers when passing through detours. Glow sticks may assist drivers in taking detours, especially if there are a lot of swerves and alternate routes to take.
Glow sticks also help hasten emergency response if the traffic situations are not permitting. Emergency personnel can find the victims faster if there are signals sent out, like light signals using glow sticks. Drivers will also be able to ask for assistance easier using glow sticks, especially if they get lost in the alternate routes or become stranded in the highway.
The safety hazards in using the bridge can greatly affect citizens. The bidding process for the contruction project is being rushed in order to fix the bridge issues as soon as possible. It may take several months to years to be completed, but the local and state government officials are determined to make it as smooth and convenient to all the citizens as possible.
