Construction to widen Interstate 30 to six lanes in Saline County requires a full overnight closure of Highway 67/229 below the I-30 bridge Wednesday, August 16.
Weather permitting, crews will close Highway 67/229 below Interstate 30 at Haskell (Exit 114), between Pawnee Drive and the frontage road north of I-30 Wednesday night, August 16, between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. This closure will allow crews to continue work on the I-30 bridge over Highway 67/229.
Highway 67/229 traffic will not be able to travel below I-30 during this closure and will need to follow the signed detours. See attached detour map NR 23-274-A.
Northbound traffic detour (approximately 7 minutes):
- East on I-30 to Exit 116 (Sevier Street)
- North on South Street Bridge

- West on I-30 to Exit 106 (Old Military Road)
