Officials with the Iowa Department of Transportation’s Creston construction office report road construction work will cause traffic on U.S. 169 to be restricted to one lane, between Iowa 92 near Winterset and Madison County Road F-90 near De Soto beginning Tuesday, Aug. 23rd, weather permitting.

A 16-foot width lane restriction will be in place in the open lane. Flaggers and a pilot car will be used to control traffic during the closure. The roadway will return to normal traffic patterns when workers are not present. The expected completion date for the project is August 26th.
