The Missouri Department of Transportation makes plans to adjust to cuts to their budge over the next few years after a final meeting was held in Jefferson City on June 8, 2011.

The Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission voted on a proposal that cuts down on internal resources for MoDot, but should still keep money on the roads. A spokesperson for MoDot says the cuts will make them a more efficient agency so that more funding can go to road and bridge projects.

The commission is adopting a plan called the Boulder Five-Year Direction, which will save the state $512 million by 2015.

The Boulder Five-Year Direction takes MODOT from 10 districts to 7.

Missouri drivers will not see the results of the budget cuts as the changes are happening internally. Planned projects will go on as scheduled. But within the next few years, less projects will be added.

The hospital says it is important to talk to your pharmacist before you leave home about the proper precautions when traveling with medications.

Cover recommends a few extra steps in your travel plans such as:

• Check medication bottles for risk of "photosensitivity," which can increase your chance of sunburn
• Store medications in a cool, dry place and avoid direct sunlight because heat and humidity can affect the potency of medications
• Do not leave medicine packed in a suitcase or vehicle trunk
• Pack more medication than days you
