GRAND ISLAND, Neb. (AP) — Work is scheduled to begin this coming week on the Interstate 80-U.S. 281/34 interchange south of Grand Island.

The Nebraska Roads Department says work will include concrete repair, pavement grinding and new pavement marking on all ramps and loops of the interchange as well as the northbound and southbound lanes of U.S. 281/34.

Traffic will be reduced to one lane, and ramps and loops will be closed while under construction. However, work will be suspended and all lanes and ramps opened during the weeks of the Nebraska State Fair and Husker Harvest Days, Aug. 22 through Sept. 18. The project is expected to be finished by mid-November.
