Version history

Every published version of this article, newest first. Versions are append-only: a correction adds a row, it never rewrites history. Each version below states what changed against the version before it — which fields moved, and which body lines were added or removed.

The content hash is a SHA-256 fingerprint of that version's stored headline and body, computed when the version was written. Two versions with the same hash hold identical text; a changed hash proves the text moved. It is the tamper-evidence check — recompute it against an exported copy of a version and any silent edit shows up as a mismatch.

How we verify a hash — and how you can

Canonicalization: the hashed bytes are the version's stored headline, then the two characters ||, then the version's stored body markdown — UTF-8, SHA-256, lowercase hex. Nothing else is in the input: no normalization, re-wrapping or rendering is applied first, no trailing newline is added, and no other field (including the parent version's id) is mixed in.

Export a version's stored headline and body, join them with the two characters ||, and take the SHA-256 of the UTF-8 bytes. It must equal the hash printed beside that version. In a shell:

printf '%s' "HEADLINE||BODY" | shasum -a 256

    • **Restrictions: utilities work** is listed at SD-37 from 1 mile south to 0.25 mile south of Junction US 14-Huron, according to the South Dakota Department of Transportation's traveller-information feed.
    • The feed gives the route as SD-37, the reference milepost as 127.242 and the affected direction as Both Directions.
    • The feed publishes a listed start of Oct. 30, 2026, 12 p.m. MDT / 1 p.m. CDT and a listed end of Nov. 17, 2026, 4 p.m. MST / 5 p.m. CST. 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 44.3628401, -98.21214891 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:
    • > Restrictions include: width limit 12 ft until 5:00 PM CST Tuesday, November 17, 2026. Utility work will close a section of SD 37 \(Dakota Avenue\). Cars will be detoured onto narrow City Streets. Trucks use the Truck Route on 21st Street, West Park Avenue, and US 14.
    • That paragraph is the department's wording at the time this record was last read, including any dates or restrictions inside it.
    • 605Buzz has not independently verified conditions on this road. Schedules change with weather and contractor progress, and the department is the authority; check [SD511](https://www.sd511.org/) before travelling.
