Now for the worst kind of construction update, the kind that affects me: Bridge deck overlay projects in a couple spots on US 30 in Cedar Rapids west of I-380 will reduce freeway traffic to one lane in both directions. The work is expected to last about three months.
The DOT press release about it seems much more … chattier? … than the usual nuts-and-bolts stuff. The on-ramp from 6th Street SW to westbound 30 will be closed, and the linked detour map is of the type that customarily appears in the project lettings. The detour uses 60th Street SW and Edgewood Road.
