Motorists who travel Highway 210 west of McGregor will encounter construction crews, heavy equipment and delays during daytime hours starting July 30, as segments of the road are reduced to a single lane.
Flaggers and a pilot car will allow one-way, alternating traffic through the daily work zone. Motorists approaching the work zone must slow down and be prepared to stop, obey the flagger and follow the pilot car through the work zone. Motorists entering a work zone from driveways or roads that intersect Highway 210 must wait for the pilot car to pass, then follow it through the work zone.
All lanes of Highway 210 will open by late August. The schedule is weather dependent.
Lane closures are needed while crews resurface more than 14 miles of Highway 210 between Highway 169 in Hassman and Highway 65 in McGregor. When complete, the project will improve the ride and extend the life the road, a news release stated.
