SIOUX FALLS, S.D. - On Wednesday, July 6, 2022, two-way traffic on 41st Street (between Marion Road and Meadow Avenue) will shift south to the newly-paved lanes as crews work on 41st Street for roadway removals. This will be the first traffic shift for drivers into the new and permanent lanes as part of the I-29/41st Street Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) project.

Project officials provide the following updates for both motorists and pedestrians.

  • The north lanes on 41st Street will be closed for roadway removals.
  • One lane in each direction will remain open on the south side of 41st Street.
  • Left turn lanes will remain open at the intersections of 41st Street and Terry Avenue and 41st Street and Marion Road.
  • The pedestrian crossing at 41st Street and Interstate 29 will be closed through early fall.
  • Pedestrian access is open at 26th Street and 49th Street.
  • Motorists and pedestrians are asked to please follow detour signs.

Drivers are urged to use caution and reduce their speed while traveling through the construction area and consider using Sertoma Avenue and 26th Street as alternate routes.
