CASS COUNTY – Crews working on the bridge replacement and intersection improvement project on 7 Highway South will extend the following lane and ramp closures:
NEW: Ramp closure Tuesday - Thursday
Intermittent lane closures through Feb. 9
In addition, the following closures will now be in place through March 31 (extended from Jan. 31 due to weather):
*Detour information: Traffic on NB 7 Highway should follow the signed detour and take northbound I-49 to Commercial Street, exit and cross the bridge and take the ramp to southbound I-49. Traffic on 275th Street/Outer Road should follow the signed detour and take the outer road south to 307th Street.
*Detour information: Traffic on northbound I-49 should follow the signed detour and take northbound I-49 to Commercial Street, exit and cross the bridge and take southbound I-49 back to 7 Highway.
*Detour information: Traffic wanting to continue west on 275th Street (northbound 7 Highway) or wanting to access southbound I-49 should follow the signed detour and take northbound I-49 to Commercial Street, exit and cross the bridge and take southbound I-49 back to 7 Highway.
This work is part of a larger project to complete two bridge replacements and make intersection improvements to 7 Highway South (275th street) over I-49.
Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
