(Nebraska City)--Weather permitting, work is scheduled to begin the week of February 29 on the N-2 and US-75 interchange located on the south edge of Nebraska City, according to the Nebraska Department of Roads.

Constructors, Inc. of Lincoln, Nebraska, has the $24.42 million contract for the one mile long project, which will consist of constructing a new elevated interchange, with N-2 elevated over US-75. The project will include grading, culverts, bridges, paving, seeding, landscaping and lighting.

The project will be constructed in phases to accommodate traffic. Traffic will be maintained at all times on both N-2 and US-75, but head-to-head traffic will be required at various times and phases. Traffic signals, temporary traffic signals, flaggers and pilot cars will be used to facilitate traffic flow.

The speed limit will be reduced and motorists are reminded that fines for speeding are doubled in work zones. The project is anticipated to be completed during the 2018 construction season.

The Department of Roads’ manager for this project is Mike Habegger of Tecumseh.

Motorists are urged to use caution when driving through construction zones.
