Road Closures Hit Multiple US States for Infrastructure Works

Several road closures and infrastructure improvement projects are scheduled across the U.S. and Alaska in the coming weeks. In Dorset, Queen's Avenue in Dorchester will be closed twice for drainage improvements, with closures spanning late May to early June and again in October. Franklin, Indiana, will see multiple local streets and a county road closed for a $66.2 million U.S. 31 intersection improvement project expected to continue through November, including construction of reduced conflict intersections and bridge rehabilitation. Shawnee County, Kansas, will close two roads consecutively for cross culvert replacements starting late May, with no signed detours provided. Meanwhile, a sewer grate collapse has partially closed lanes on Route 130 in Cinnaminson, New Jersey. Additionally, Alaska's Dalton Highway will close at Milepost 59 on May 29 for culvert replacement, with officials advising travelers to check real-time updates and drive cautiously.
