SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – On Friday, June 9, 2023, traffic on the 41st Street Bridge will be shifted to the south side as part of the 41st Street DDI construction project.

In addition to the traffic shift on the 41st Street Bridge, the Interstate 29 southbound on-ramp (exit 77) at 41st Street will reopen on Friday during the late afternoon or early evening. This on-ramp has been closed for grading and paving work.
