Utility work along Interstate 29 in Buchanan County from just north of the Gene Field Road Bridge to south of US Route 169 will narrow traffic lanes and cause delays overnight in two weeks.
Starting Wednesday, July 15th at 7pm, PAR Electrical Contractors will replace transmission lines across the interstate. Motorists should expect delays. Work will continue overnight until 10am on Thursday, July 16th. For the work, I-29 will be narrowed in both directions to one lane from Gene Field Road Bridge to Route 169 north.
The contractor will be utilizing intermittent rolling closures overnight while crews cut the old transmission wire down, remove and replace it. All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
