Milling and reclaiming is done between Cyrus and Starbuck! Paving began July 15 on the east end of Cyrus, working east towards Starbuck. Please obey flaggers and follow pilot cars.
On the west side, from Morris to Cyrus, rumble strips have been installed, and final striping has been completed! In Cyrus, underground utility replacements continue in Phase 2, and an extra crew has arrived to speed up that progress. In Phase 1, concrete crews have started on curbs and gutters, and will continue that work into next week.
A reminder to those heading to/from Cyrus, you cannot access Cyrus from the west. While the in-town detour switched temporarily this week so crews could work in the Highway 28 and Chippewa Street intersection, the detour is expected to switch back to Chippewa Street by the end of today, Friday, July 17. Continue to enter Cyrus from the south on County Road 3, turn left on Third Street and use Chippewa Street to cross Highway 28.
All construction activities and traffic impacts are weather dependent.
Please support your local businesses! During the in-town work, if you're trying to access a business within the work areas, check in with them on the best way to get there. You may have to park on a side street and walk up, or use a back door. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
 Other local traffic safety reminders:
- This is an active work zone, even in areas where workers aren't present. Please slow down, and travel with extreme caution and care.
- Always obey flaggers and follow pilot car
- Be alert for changing conditions, such as uneven, rough and/or gravel surfaces
- Watch for workers, trucks hauling, and slow-moving heavy equipment
The highway is closed to thru-traffic. If you don't have a destination along the roadway, please follow the signed detour route. For access to Cyrus, follow the detour and from County Road 18 use County Road 3 to enter from the south.
