BACKGROUND The Iowa DOT will be conducting a traffic safety improvement project on US 52/61/151 over the next two years. The project construction corridor will extend from the U.S. 52 intersection (Twin Valley Road) with U.S. 61/151 to the Grandview overpass. The project includes reconstruction of U.S. 52/61/151 from the Grandview interchange to the U.S. 52 intersection, the replacement of the existing bridges spanning Catfish Creek, installation of a median barrier, and improvements at the U.S. 52 intersection with U.S. 61/151. Should an incident occur within the construction corridor that would require the temporary closure of US 52/61/151, an emergency detour route has been established to temporarily re -route traffic. The designated emergency detour route will redirect traffic onto Rockdale Road as shown on the attached emergency detour route map.
