Like last year, repairing bridge deck. Take 280 around South side of Quad Cities. After 7-1 bridge is scheduled to be open single lane both ways.

If you go across the bridge westbound, it is down to one lane and there is a speed limit of 45 or 55 no big deal but w/construction there may be some delays. Or you could just take 280 West and hookup West of Davenport w/80 again. There will be a lot more cross-country truck traffic though.

I benefited from your post before and looks like I’ll benefit from this one as I’m headed to Iowa City shortly. Thanks again for posting.^

Opened to 2-way traffic yesterday, one lane each direction. Well ahead of schedule; in fact the contractor gets a 1 mill$ bonus for doing so. Bridge supposed to be totally done by Nov 1.
