I-24 intersection to reopen today

U.S. 62 is expected to reopen at noon today at the 16 mile marker in Lyon County.

This is just west of I-24 Exit 40 at the entrance to Hucks Truck Stop and Southwest Grill.

The traffic signal at this intersection is likely to remain in flashing mode.

Several area farmers have provided irrigation pumps to remove water from Amos Lake, which had backed up into the intersection.

Some water may remain over the roadway at this site so extra caution is required.
