A lane width reduction to 13-feet is now in effect on the northbound Interstate 29 passing lane along with the closure of the driving lane near mile marker 75.
The reduction in lane width is anticipated to be in place for approximately four weeks. Work and timelines are dependent on favorable weather conditions.
This ongoing work is in anticipation of opening the I-29 northbound bridge over the stormwater diversion channel and moving traffic from the current northbound bypass lanes back to the primary interstate lanes once the bridge is complete.
Travel speeds will be reduced to 40 mph when workers are present and 55 mph through the construction zone when work is not taking place near the travel lane. During this time motorists are asked to remain alert to changing traffic patterns.
