We appreciate everyone's patience and understanding this week while the thru-traffic detour was adjusted temporarily for Stevens County's resurfacing project on County Road 10. That work will wrap up the morning of Friday, Aug. 7, and all of Highway 28 will close again to thru-traffic from Morris to Starbuck.
If you do not have a destination along Highway 28, please stick to the thru-traffic detour route. The road must remain closed to allow crews to finish the work in Cyrus, and between Cyrus and Starbuck. Thank you for your understanding!
All construction activities and traffic impacts are weather dependent.
 Original thru-traffic detour resumes Friday, Aug. 7
Construction progress
Between Cyrus and Starbuck, crews continue shouldering, turf establishment and other cleanup, and rumble strips will be next. Local traffic should continue to drive with caution in this section and always obey traffic control.
Concrete crews continue to install sidewalks in Phase 1 in Cyrus, with Phase 2 concrete work to follow.
