On Tuesday, May 19, 2026, the eastbound on-ramp at exit 332 (Mitchell) on Interstate 90 will be closed. The closure is for repair of the railroad bridge located at the end of the ramp. During the scheduled closure, ramp traffic will follow a signed detour west to exit 330 and back onto I-90 using the exit 330 eastbound on-ramp.

The closure of the eastbound on-ramp at exit 332 is scheduled to reopen on Tuesday, Aug. 4, 2026.

This overall project includes replacing bridge approach slabs and joints to provide a smoother transition on and off the structure. Berm repairs and improvements to the approach pavement will also be completed to enhance ride quality and extend the life of the roadway.

A polymer chip seal will be applied to help protect the surface from moisture and wear. Guardrail upgrades will improve roadside safety, and an acceleration lane will be constructed to allow drivers to safely merge into traffic.

The prime contractor for this $2.67 million paving project is T & R Construction of Sioux Falls, SD. The overall project completion date is Friday, Oct. 30, 2026.

We here at the Davison County Sheriff’s Office would like to thank the community who came together under the guidance of Plastow Thyme Out and provided our building with a day of feasting. The meals were delicious and the extra snacks filled any void we may have had. More importantly the appreciation that we all felt gave us a good reminder that even when these jobs are not easy, we are here for the community, just as much as the community is here for us.

Our office received a call about 5 dogs that appeared to have been dumped on a field approach near the intersection of 397th Avenue and 258th Street. When we arrived, we found the 5 dogs, along with 2 metal dog crates. We were able to catch 4 of the 5, which were taken to Lakeview Vet Clinic. The 5th dog was not able to be caught and ran into some CRP land. If you are in that area, please keep an eye out for it. Purr N Ruff animal rescue will be bringing a trap out tonight to try to catch it. The dogs look to be labradoodles. We would love information if you know who the owner of these is.

Photos of 2 of the dogs are below. They should be available for adoption sometime next week.
