SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - The South Dakota Department of Transportation says that northbound and southbound I-29 will be reduced to two lanes in each direction in the passing lanes at the 41st Street interchange beginning Monday, March 27, 2023, while crews begin work on the 41st Street Bridge.

According to the SDDOT press release, on Thursday, March 30, 2023, the I-29 traffic pattern will shift again. The northbound lanes of I-29 will be diverted to the southbound lanes using the crossovers at 26th Street and 49th Street.
