A section of 40th Avenue north of Pleasantville is closed for repairs. Marion County Engineer Tyler Christian says a detour is in place, and the project will last about a week.

“The closure is limited to Erbe to Geneva, so the one mile stretch on the north end of that pavement. We’ll be doing a section of full-depth removal and replacement and some sub-drain work to address the drainage there. Homes will all have access. We all know it’s harvest time, but with contracts, this is how it works. We’re at the mercy of the contractor. It’ll be one week, we’ll have a detour erected for people to follow, and hopefully we can get through it very quickly.”
