The Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad Company (BNSF) will begin railroad crossing repair work on S.D. Highway 45, in Ipswich, on Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2023. The railroad crossing repair operations will close Highway 45. No detour is available.
The expected completion date for the project is Thursday, Aug. 17, 2023.
Motorists should be aware that S.D. Highway 47 is currently closed due to reconstruction work and should not be used as an alternate route. Motorists will need to find alternate routes to access both U.S. Highway 12 and S.D. Highway 20 in this area.
This work is part of BNSF’s operations to complete railroad crossing repair work throughout the area.
The mission of the South Dakota Department of Transportation is to efficiently provide a safe and effective public transportation system.
