Sioux City, Iowa – April 8, 2025 – If you travel on westbound U.S. 20 and use the ramp to reach southbound Interstate 29 you need to be aware of upcoming repair work that may slow down your trip, according to the Iowa Department of Transportation’s District 3 Office.
Beginning at 8:30 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Thursday, April 10, weather permitting, crews will close the ramp from westbound U.S. 20 to southbound I-29 so repairs can be made to the guardrail.
When the ramp is closed, westbound U.S. 20 traffic will be instructed to travel north on I-29 to the Floyd Boulevard exit to enter I-29 south.
The Iowa DOT reminds motorists to drive with caution, obey the posted speed limit and other signs in the work area, and be aware that traffic fines for moving violations are at least double in work zones. As in all work zones, drivers should stay alert, allow ample space between vehicles, and wear seat belts.
