SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – On Monday, June 16, 2025, the northbound Interstate 29 on-ramp at 26th Street will be reopened. As structure work continues, northbound traffic on I-29 over the Skunk Creek Bridge will be switched and maintained in the two east lanes. Traffic is anticipated to be in this configuration until Wednesday, July 16, 2025, to allow for work in the west lanes. Once work is complete, traffic will be restored to their respective lanes.
The prime contractor for this $7.4 million project is General Excavating, LLC. of Lincoln, NE. The overall completion date for the project is July 2025.
