Helping the kids with their homework. Shopping for groceries. Doing the laundry. Shuttling back and forth from ballgames, school plays and other activities. Everybody’s crunched. Do you have time to sit down and watch the 6 p.m. news or read the paper?
If you’ve got a digital media player like an iPod or a smartphone, or access any kind of computer, you can choose when, where and what information you watch, listen to or read, based on what’s important to you. Technology is making it easier and easier to keep up with what’s happening, all at the click of a button or a keystroke.
That’s why the N.C. Department of Transportation is launching a new weekly video broadcast called “NCDOT Now,” which provides weekly updates on new transportation projects, our efforts to protect the environment and initiatives to help keep motorists safe. You can subscribe to “NCDOT Now” through the iTunes store for free and have the broadcast delivered instantly to your computer, iPod or other mp3 media player each week. Maybe you’d rather have it sent to your e-mail inbox, instead. No problem – just sign up here. “NCDOT Now” is also available on our YouTube page.
You decide when to tune in – it’s a great way to stay informed when it’s convenient for you.
This week, you’ll hear about the new signs touting North Carolina as the most military friendly state in the nation. Other posted episodes offer information on high speed rail and our wildflower program, among other topics. Check it out!
