(Avoca) The Iowa DOT says crews will begin replacing the other half of the bridge on U.S. 59 one mile south of Avoca beginning on Monday, April 1, weather permitting.
The roadway will be reduced to one lane with a 10-foot lane width restriction. Trucks with wide loads traveling north of the work zone will be directed to use Iowa 83 and trucks with wide loads traveling south of the work zone will be directed to use U.S. 6.
You will be directed across the bridge with temporary signal lights.
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.
