(CRESTON, Iowa DOT Construction Office) – May 2, 2023 – If you’re planning to drive on Iowa 141 in Dallas and Guthrie counties, there’s an upcoming asphalt crack filling project that could slow down your trip.

Beginning on Monday, May 8, weather permitting, construction crews will work on crack filling on Iowa 141 from Iowa 4 to U.S. 169 weekdays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. until Thursday, June 1. You will be assisted through the work zone with the use of flaggers and a pilot car. A 12-foot lane-width restriction will be in place during this project.

Help keep everyone on the road safer. Drive with caution, obey the posted speed limit and other signs in the work area, and be aware that traffic fines for moving violations are at least double in work zones. As in all work zones, you should stay alert, allow ample space between vehicles, and wear seat belts.
