Motorists traveling during the holiday season should be aware of upcoming nighttime closures on Interstate 80 in Iowa.
Closure Details and Timing
Eastbound lanes between Grand Prairie Parkway and Jordan Creek Parkway will be shut down from 8:30 p.m. to 5 a.m. on Monday, December 22, and Tuesday, December 23. These closures are part of ongoing reconstruction efforts on the interstate.
All scheduled closures may be adjusted based on weather conditions.
Alternative Routes for Drivers
During the closure period, drivers will need to follow a marked detour. The route involves exiting at Grand Prairie Parkway (exit 118), traveling north on University Avenue, then heading south on Jordan Creek Parkway to rejoin eastbound I-80.
Detour routes could change, so travelers are advised to check 511ia.org for current information before entering the construction area. Drivers should also watch for detour signs and message boards while on the road.
