INDOT to Have Santa Tracker Available Once Again

The Indiana Department of Transportation announces, for the third consecutive year, that it will be tracking the movements of Jolly ‘Ol Saint Nick while he makes his rounds in the Hoosier State.

On December 24, beginning at 6 p.m. eastern time, INDOT Social media pages will track the movements of Santa Claus as he enters the state in our Seymour District. Kris Kringle will visit Indiana landmarks, visit with INDOT staff and help spread the word about travel tips and safe driving.

Children and parents who would like to follow Santa can do so at the times listed below using #SantaStopsIN:
