Restrictions: miscellaneous construction is listed at US-281 from 2.75 miles south to 1.75 miles south of Junction South Dakota 46-Pickstown, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.
The feed gives the route as US-18, the reference milepost as 325.832 and the affected direction as Both Directions.
The feed's route field and its location description do not agree on this record: the route reads US-18 while the location description begins "US-281 from 2.75 miles south to 1.75 miles south of Junction". Both are reproduced as published rather than reconciled.
The feed publishes a listed start of 2026-08-04T11:57:00.000Z and a listed end of 2026-08-10T11:58:00.000Z. Times are given in UTC as converted from the feed's own numeric timestamps.
Whether this work is currently underway is not stated in this text, deliberately: it depends on the time you are reading, so 605Buzz computes it from the dates above each time the page is loaded rather than storing an answer that would go out of date without anyone noticing. The status shown at the top of this page is the computed one.
The feed publishes coordinates of 43.0598118271605, -98.5606622098765 for this record. Those are the department's own figures, reproduced as published; 605Buzz does not geocode.
The department's own description of the work, reproduced without changes as published in the feed:
Restrictions include: width limit 12 ft until 6:58 AM CDT Monday, August 10, 2026. Road will be closed along the Ft. Randall Dam on Hwy. 18. A signed detour route will be on Powerhouse Road and the Toe Road along the Ft Randall Dam.
That paragraph is the department's wording at the time this record was last read, including any dates or restrictions inside it. 605Buzz does not rewrite it, and a detail inside it can be superseded without the surrounding fields changing.
605Buzz has not independently verified conditions on this road. Schedules change with weather and contractor progress, and the department is the authority; check SD511 before travelling.
This record comes from the South Dakota Department of Transportation's public traveller-information feed, served through its vendor's content network. Neither host publishes a robots.txt or terms-of-use page, so no access directive exists either way; 605Buzz reproduces the department's own fields with attribution and does not claim a licence nobody granted.
