SALINE COUNTY | September 5, 2024
NR #24-282
Construction to widen Interstate 30 (I-30) to six lanes in Saline County requires a temporary closure of the I-30 frontage road west of Highway 229 from 7 p.m. Friday, September 6 through 5 a.m. Monday, September 9.
Weather permitting, crews will close the I-30 frontage road between Highway 229 and Mountain View Elementary School for drainage work. Traffic will be unable to access the frontage road from Highway 229 during this closure and will follow the signed detour. See attached detour map NR 24-282-A for additional information.
- Highway 229 to Frontage Road. Traffic will take the on-ramp to I-30 west, take Exit 111 (Highway 70), and take the first right to access the frontage road.
Traffic will be controlled with construction barrels, barricades, and signage. The public is advised to be cautious when traveling in the work zone and watch for slower traffic speeds. Areas adjacent to the Interstate may experience noise impacts during nighttime hours.
