  "bodyMd": "**Road work: grading, paving** is listed at SD-50 from 1 mile west to 2 miles east of Junction South Dakota 37 South-Tyndall, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.\n\nThe feed gives the route as SD-50, the reference milepost as 138.987 and the affected direction as Both Directions.\n\nThe feed publishes a listed start of Sept. 22, 2026, 7:32 a.m. MDT / 8:32 a.m. CDT and no listed end — the feed publishes none for this record, which is how it represents work scheduled until further notice. 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 42.98757469, -97.87787282 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: grading adjacent to the roadway and paving adjacent to the roadway with delays 5 minutes, flaggers, lanes reduced to 2, no passing, speed limit 45 mph, traffic routed to opposing lanes, and width limit 11 ft until further notice. Hwy 50 Reconstruction is occurring from 1/2 mile west of Hwy 37 South east to 1/2 mile east edge of Tyndall. Two-way traffic will be maintained on 1/2 the roadway while the other half is constructed. The speed limit will be reduced to 45mph for the length of the project. A 11' wide width restriction we be enforced. Anticipated completion of late November 2026.\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/construction-projects/mitchell-region/yankton-area/sd-highway-50-and-sd-highway-37-tyndall/](https://dot.sd.gov/construction-projects/mitchell-region/yankton-area/sd-highway-50-and-sd-highway-37-tyndall/) 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.",
