TXDOT has announced today that road crews are beginning to make pavement repairs on South Broadway in Tyler.

Crews will be making repairs from Amherst Street north beyond Wilma Street to Old Troup. Northbound lanes of Broadway are expected to be affected.

Workers will be present at this site today and Wednesday; drivers are advised to use alternate routes to avoid delays.

East Texans are complaining about the increasing cost of fuel, and with good reason.

In an effort to help our neighbors find the best gas prices, we at KLTV are collecting viewer-submitted photos of local gas station signs each day to tip off area drivers about the best (or worst, as the case may be) places to buy fuel.  We all want to find fuel at the lowest possible price, and this may help us all do so.

We will put these photos in our KLTV slideshow entitled "Pain at the Pump Price Check." Each photo should be submitted with name of town and nearest cross-streets so that those viewing the slideshow know where to find the station.

If you'd like to submit a gas prices picture from your community, just snap it with your phone and send it in an email to sendit@kltv.com.

With storms predicted across East Texas tonight, chances are good that many will come across water-covered roadways in the morning. We have some safety tips for you from the Texas Department of Public Safety to prevent loss of life and damage to your property:

Many flood-related injuries and deaths could be avoided if drivers would turn around and choose a different route when they see water across a road. When there’s water running across a road, drivers should always turn around and choose a different route. These are the facts:

• Six inches of water can cause tires to lose traction and begin to slide.

• Twelve inches of water can float many cars.
