  "bodyMd": "**Road work: pavement repair, paving** is listed at US-281 from Junction South Dakota 28 to 1.50 miles south of Junction US 212 West-Redfield, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.\n\nThe feed gives the route as US-281, the reference milepost as 145.035 and the affected direction as Both Directions.\n\nThe feed publishes a listed start of Sept. 22, 2026, 2:09 p.m. MDT / 3:09 p.m. CDT and a listed end of Oct. 30, 2026, 4:30 p.m. MDT / 5:30 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 44.74183475, -98.50385363 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 and paving with delays 15 minutes, flaggers, lanes reduced to 1, pilot car, and width limit 16 ft until 5:30 PM CDT Friday, October 30, 2026. The project consists of milling and asphalt paving of the travel lanes and shoulders. The driving surface will be milled. Traffic will be controlled with flaggers and pilot car.\n\nThat paragraph is the department's wording at the time this record was last read, including any dates or restrictions inside it.\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.",
