One lane closure will be on the County Road 16/17 crossing, located south of Horace, North Dakota. This closing will begin on Wednesday and last through Thursday, July 16, 2026.
The second lane closure will be on the County Road 4/31 crossing, located east of Argusville, North Dakota. This closing will begin on Wednesday and last through Friday, July 17, 2026.
Flaggers will be in place to coordinate traffic through the lane closures. Motorists should expect delays and intermittent stops in the work areas. Please allow extra time for travel and remain alert to changing conditions when driving through these work areas.
