Local travelers can expect increased traffic this holiday season. AAA forecasts that there will be a record of 115.6 million travelers between this Saturday and New Year’s Day. That reflects nearly a four percent increase from last year. Locally, the Door County Sheriff’s Department is asking area drivers to plan ahead, take their time and be aware of road conditions before venturing out. Gas prices at some pumps in Door County are lower than the state average of $2.55, registering at $2.39 a gallon as of Thursday. That is only three cents more a gallon than it was one year ago, according to GasBuddy.com.
