Weather and Construction Projects Disrupt Traffic Globally

Severe weather warnings have been issued across New Zealand, with heavy rain affecting regions from the Coromandel Peninsula to the Tasman districts, causing road closures and potential flooding. In the Isle of Man, a five-month wastewater improvement project is set to disrupt traffic with partial and full road closures on Old Castletown Road in Douglas, aimed at reducing health risks and operational costs. Pittsburgh is undergoing urgent water line repairs on Grant Street, causing road closures and traffic detours. The KC Streetcar project in Kansas City continues with Main Street resurfacing, aiming for completion by month's end. In Michigan, the Fruit Ridge Avenue bridge over I-96 is closed for an eight-month reconstruction project, which includes road widening and the addition of a non-motorized path. Meanwhile, several roads remain closed in St. Joseph County due to storm damage, with cleanup hindered by downed power lines.
