Bridge work and detours shape area roads this winter
Road crews replace Pine Creek bridge on Highway 22 east of Fairport with a 44 foot wide span expected to finish by winter. Traffic is detoured around a washed out stretch on Highway 22 as the area settles before filling. Cedar River bridge on Highway 6 at Alalissa remains closed amid weather delays while a new 44 foot wide bridge nears completion. Shoulder rebuilding on Highway 22 70 west of Muscatine progresses, with most work due next week. Detours and disruptions mark ongoing progress.
