RAPID CITY, S.D. –  The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) says bridge deck improvements on the Cambell Street bridge, between Saint Patrick Street and the East Saint Joseph Street ramps, will begin on Monday, April 4, 2022. The work will primarily take place on the bridge deck surface with supporting work occurring underneath the bridge.

The project includes the selective replacement of concrete areas that were identified through routine inspection of the bridge. The proactive concrete replacement is intended to preserve the remaining service life of the bridge.

Traffic will be maintained in both directions with temporary traffic control devices guiding motorists through the work zone. A 12-foot width restriction will be in effect for the duration of the project. Drivers are asked to be aware of workers and drive cautiously through the work zone.

The prime contractor on the $149,000 project is J.V. Bailey Co., Inc. of Rapid City. The project is scheduled for completion by Friday, July 29, 2022.
