The I-90/Brandon interchange project is ready to take its next step in Phase 2, which will cause more traffic detours for those who travel west on I-90 to Brandon.
On May 5, the construction company, T&R Contracting, will be closing the I-90 westbound off-ramp that allows travelers onto Highway 11 from the interstate.
"Motorists traveling westbound on I-90 to Brandon should use exit 410 and follow the signed detour south to County Road 138 (Asphalt Boulevard) and then west into Brandon," states the press release from the SD Dept of Transportation.
Exit 410 is the 486th Street exit, also known as the Valley Springs/east Garretson exit. Earlier last month, the construction company moved all traffic onto the north lanes, closing the south lanes for reconstruction. The second phase of reconstruction on this DDI project includes completing the remaining on- and off-ramps, the eastbound lanes of I-90, the Exit Bridge, and the replacement of the eastbound I-90 bridge over the BNSF railroad.
