Interstate 80, (Brian Neben, Central Nebraska Today)

Weather permitting, work will continue March 23 on Interstate 80 (I-80), from reference post 197.50 to reference post 205.62, according to the Nebraska Department of Transportation.

Western Engineering, of Harlan, Iowa, is the contractor for this project. Work includes bridge repair and asphalt resurfacing. Traffic will be maintained with lane closures for the duration of the work. An 11-foot width restriction will be in place. Anticipated completion is spring of 2026.

The purpose of this project is to preserve the transportation asset, improve the reliability of the transportation system and perpetuate the mobility of the traveling public.

Motorists should expect reduced speeds and lane reductions within the work zones and are reminded to drive cautiously through highway construction zones.
