* Due to unforeseen problems with the concrete on a one block section of Hwy 59 between 1st St. and A St., a short detour will remain in place. This section of road was planned to be milled and overlaid, but is now going to be completely reconstructed because the existing concrete is in worse condition than originally assessed. The detour will go north on Hwy 23 to Hwy 19/E College Drive west back to Main St.
