Road construction to close suburban Des Moines interstate ramp

GRIMES, Iowa -- Road construction is closing an interstate on-ramp in Urbandale starting next week.

The Iowa Department of Transportation says the eastbound/northbound I-80/35 entrance ramp at Douglas Ave. will be closed, weather permitting, from Monday, June 1st through June 19th as part of a widening project.

The Iowa DOT says the work will match the ramp with additional lanes being added to I-80/35 between the 100th Street interchange and the Douglas Avenue interchange as part of the Urban Loop (Rider Corner) flyover project.

Westbound traffic on Douglas Ave. that wants to enter eastbound/northbound I-80/35 will be directed west to 128th Street, continuing onto James Street in Grimes, then north to 37th Street, then south on Iowa 141 to I-80/35.
