According to AAA, 48.3 million \u2013 about 90 percent, are expected to drive. The remaining 5.2 million travelers will choose other modes of transportation such as air, bus, cruise, or train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That translates to congested roadways!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Municipalities should consider contacting the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.landlasphaltpaving.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>asphalt paving contractors<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0at L&amp;L Asphalt about asphalt repair.
