NEW HAMPTON, Iowa – June 14, 2022 – A hot-mix asphalt pavement resurfacing project on Iowa 76 from the Clayton/Allamakee County line to Allamakee County Road X-32 will require intermittent lane closures beginning on Monday, June 20 until mid-November, weather permitting, according to the Iowa Department of Transportation’s New Hampton construction office. 

During this project, motorists will be directed through the work zone with flaggers and pilot cars when workers are present.

The Iowa DOT reminds motorists to 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, drivers should stay alert, allow ample space between vehicles, and wear seat belts.
