How this desk works (below the article)

Road work: pavement repair is listed at SD-79 from 1.25 miles south of North Dakota State Line to North Dakota State Line, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.

The feed gives the route as SD-79, the reference milepost as 179.109 and the affected direction as Both Directions.

The feed publishes a listed start of Sept. 8, 2026, 5:17 a.m. MDT / 6:17 a.m. CDT and a listed end of Sept. 16, 2026, 7 p.m. MDT / 8 p.m. CDT. Each is one instant shown in both of South Dakota's zones — Mountain first, Central second; they are the same moment. The feed names a route and not a zone, so 605Buzz does not pick one for you.

Whether this work is currently underway is not stated in this text: it depends on the time you are reading, and the department is the authority.

The feed publishes coordinates of 45.9392599, -102.9618443 for this record. Those are the department's own figures, reproduced as published; 605Buzz does not geocode.

The department's own description of the work, reproduced without changes as published in the feed:

The following road construction project is in progress: pavement repair with delays 5 minutes, flaggers, lanes reduced to 1, traffic routed to opposing lanes, and width limit 16 ft Monday through Friday between 6:00 AM and 7:00 PM until 7:00 PM MDT Wednesday, September 16, 2026. Lane closure for pavement repair. Traffic control by flagger during day, Stop Signs overnight.

That paragraph is the department's wording at the time this record was last read, including any dates or restrictions inside it.

The feed links dot.sd.gov/inside-sddot/region-area-offices/region-and-area-offices/ for this project.

605Buzz has not independently verified conditions on this road. Schedules change with weather and contractor progress, and the department is the authority; check SD511 before travelling.

How this desk works

Where this comes from

This listing comes from the South Dakota Department of Transportation's public traveller information, served through its vendor's content network. Neither host publishes a robots.txt or terms-of-use page, so no access directive exists either way; the department's own fields are reproduced with attribution, and no licence is claimed that nobody granted.

How the times are shown

The department publishes start and end as numeric timestamps, so each is shown as a clock reading in both of South Dakota's zones.

How the status is decided

Whether work is currently underway is not written into the article text, deliberately: it depends on when you are reading. It is worked out from the listed dates each time the page loads rather than stored as an answer that would go out of date without anyone noticing. The status at the top of the page is that calculation, not a claim the department made.

The department's description is put into plain words by fixed rules only: its standard opening line is replaced, times and dates are written the way people say them, and direction words lose their capitals mid-sentence. Nothing is added, and every number, place and time it gives is kept; a description in a shape those rules were not written for is quoted exactly as published. A detail inside it can be superseded without the surrounding fields changing.

Around this record

The records published so far include 1 road record from the South Dakota Department of Transportation within about 16 miles of this location with a listed start on or before this date. One of them states an end date on or after it. SD511 is the department's own live conditions service.

This section is assembled from other records already published and from arithmetic on the date above and on the coordinate this record's source published. It is not part of the filed record.
