YANKTON, S.D. – On Monday, Aug. 26, 2024, the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) is scheduled to install an all-way stop at the intersection of U.S. Highway 81 and U.S. Highway 18, which is located north of Yankton and just east of Menno. Currently, traffic is only required to stop on Highway 18.
