  "bodyMd": "**Road work: pavement repair** is listed at SD-79 from 1.25 miles south of North Dakota State Line to North Dakota State Line, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.\n\nThe feed gives the route as SD-79, the reference milepost as 179.109 and the affected direction as Both Directions.\n\nThe feed publishes a listed start of Sept. 8, 2026, 5:17 a.m. MDT / 6:17 a.m. CDT and a listed end of Sept. 16, 2026, 7 p.m. MDT / 8 p.m. CDT. Each is one instant shown in both of South Dakota's zones — Mountain first, Central second; they are the same moment. The feed names a route and not a zone, so 605Buzz does not pick one for you.\n\nWhether this work is currently underway is not stated in this text: it depends on the time you are reading, and the department is the authority.\n\nThe feed publishes coordinates of 45.9392599, -102.9618443 for this record. Those are the department's own figures, reproduced as published; 605Buzz does not geocode.\n\nThe department's own description of the work, reproduced without changes as published in the feed:\n\n> The following road construction project is in progress: pavement repair with delays 5 minutes, flaggers, lanes reduced to 1, traffic routed to opposing lanes, and width limit 16 ft Monday through Friday between 6:00 AM and 7:00 PM until 7:00 PM MDT Wednesday, September 16, 2026. Lane closure for pavement repair.\n> Traffic control by flagger during day, Stop Signs overnight.\n\nThat paragraph is the department's wording at the time this record was last read, including any dates or restrictions inside it.\n\nThe feed links [dot.sd.gov/inside-sddot/region-area-offices/region-and-area-offices/](https://dot.sd.gov/inside-sddot/region-area-offices/region-and-area-offices/) for this project.\n\n605Buzz has not independently verified conditions on this road. Schedules change with weather and contractor progress, and the department is the authority; check [SD511](https://www.sd511.org/) before travelling.",
