Highway 30/South Duff Bridge Repair In Ames Starts July 13

Press release from the City of Ames:

July 10, 2020

The Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) will be performing repairs to the U.S. Highway 30 bridge over South Duff Avenue beginning Monday, July 13. The work will require the replacement of a damaged concrete beam.

There will be lane closures along South Duff Avenue and Highway 30 during the project, including a full closure of northbound South Duff Avenue to remove and replace the beam. This closure is expected to take place overnight to minimize impacts on traffic. A detour will be in place prior to that closure.

The shared use path along South Duff Avenue will remain open except when construction activity is directly adjacent and would endanger the public. The path will be closed during the day on those occasions.

The repair project is expected to be complete within five to six weeks. For more information on this project, contact the Iowa DOT Jefferson Resident Construction Engineer office at 515.386.8166.
