Weather permitting, closure of Herbert Hoover Highway NE/F44 in Johnson County and Main Street in West Branch at its intersection with Johnson Cedar Road will begin on Monday, April 3, 2023. Closing each road is required to complete construction of a roundabout at the intersection of Herbert Hoover Highway and Johnson Cedar Road.

A posted detour for Herbert Hoover Highway NE/F44 will utilize Interstate 80 and S. Downey Street, while a posted detour for Johnson Cedar Road will utilize Dawson Drive.
