NEW HAMPTON, Iowa – March 30, 2021 – Hot-mix asphalt resurfacing and construction of paved shoulders on Iowa 150 from West Union to Calmar will require lane closures in the work zone beginning on Monday, April 5, 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 during daytime hours. This project is scheduled for completion by mid-October.
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.
