The Nebraska Department of Roads says traffic on two major roadways in and near Lincoln will be interrupted next week for maintenance.

Lincoln's Interstate 180, a short spur linking U.S. Interstate 80 with Downtown Lincoln, will be closed from 6 p.m. Monday, August 13 until 6 a.m. Tuesday, August 14.

Detour routes for I-180 traffic from westbound and eastbound I-80, as well as us Highway 34, will be marked.

 Also, work on U.S. Highway 77 from Lincoln to six miles north of Beatrice is expected to force traffic into one lane and reduce the speed limit to 45 mph.

The work starts Monday and is expected to last four days. The disruption is to allow road crews to spray oil to seal fine cracks in the roadways.
