Highway 75/12th Street Southwest intersection is closed for two weeks

(LE MARS)--Traffic patterns in southwest Le Mars will change for two weeks, beginning today (Friday).

The intersection of 12th Street Southwest and Highway 75 will be closed while a contractor repairs paving at the intersection.

The work is part of efforts to improve the surface of Business Highway 75, south of Highway 3. A contractor will also follow the patching process to smooth the surface in what's known as diamond grinding and then applying a sealing coat to the route.
