Good news for local drivers - one of this summer's biggest traffic headaches is nearly over.
The Illinois Department of Transportation says Civil Constructors has finished repairs on one side of the I-74 bridge - and that means two lanes of open road and open ramps from Bettendorf to Moline on southbound I-74 - from Middle Road to John Deere Road.
Work continues on the other side of the bridge, northbound (Iowa bound) I-74. Completion is expected by mid-September. Motorists should continue to be alert for lane closures and merging traffic in the construction zone.
