US Road Closures Expand Amid Infrastructure Repairs

Numerous U.S. regions are experiencing major road closures and detours due to essential infrastructure repairs, affecting highways, bridges, and utilities. In Arkansas, Highway 148 near Burdette is closed until late August for repairs, while Pueblo, Colorado, has closures on Elizabeth and 24th Streets for stormwater work. Indiana's Wayne Trace remains closed for sanitary sewer installation through early September, and Lancaster County, Nebraska, has shut a portion of 140th Street near Branched Oak Lake for bridge repairs. Lawrence, Kansas, has closed part of 19th Street near local schools for a water main project, and Chesterfield, Virginia, is conducting short-term pipe replacement closures. East Providence, Rhode Island, is also experiencing pavement repair-related traffic disruptions. Local authorities are providing signage, detours, and notifications to help minimize community impact during these projects.
