The City of Dubuque urges residents to slow down and follow the road closed signage, construction detours, and other traffic control measures in place throughout the community.
Areas of particular concern are the Jackson St. closure between 29th and 32nd streets and the John F. Kennedy Rd. and W. 32nd St. area.
Motorists are disregarding street closures, detours, and other safety measures that are in place to protect motorists, pedestrians, construction workers, neighborhood residents, and public infrastructure. In some cases, people have moved barricades and detour signage.
To increase safety and reduce traffic violations in these work zones and other road closure areas, the police department will conduct targeted enforcement efforts.
