CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — Nov. 10, 2026 — Drivers on southbound Interstate 380 should expect delays because an acceleration/deceleration lane (marked as “exit only”) will be closed between mile markers 20.8 and 21.2 (between H Avenue and 7th Street NE), beginning Friday night, Nov. 13, until 6 a.m. Monday, Nov. 16, weather permitting, according to the Iowa Department of Transportation’s Cedar Rapids construction office.
Crews are repairing a bridge. Drivers in the area should expect delays. The on-ramp to I-380 from H Avenue and the off-ramp to 7th Street will be open during this project.
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.
