SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) -- The South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT), in collaboration with the Sioux Falls Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) and Lincoln County, will hold a public open house on Tuesday, Oct.24, on the beginning of a corridor study for Interstate 29 from Exit 62 (US18/Canton) to Exit 73 (Lincoln Co. 106/Tea).
This open house public meeting will be held beginning at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 24, at the Tea Middle School Commons, 505 W. Brian St. in Tea.
The purpose for the open house is to inform the public of the study’s intent, to record any concerns the public may have along the study’s corridor and to gather ideas to help determine the future look of the corridor. This includes the possible reconfiguration of the Exit 64 (SD44 / Worthing), Exit 68 (Lennox) and Exit 71 (Tea/Harrisburg) interchanges. The study will address a full range of transportation options and issues including pedestrian, bicycle, transit, freight and automobile.
