Road construction will prompt closures along two roadways just outside of Dubuque. Projects begin Monday on West John Deere and South John Deere Roads. According to the Dubuque County Road Department, the projects include temporary paving work on South John Deere Road. Once the pavement work is completed, grading operations will commence on South John Deere Road at the intersection with Peru Road north to the West John Deere Road intersection. The area will be completely closed for about three months while two roundabouts are installed. The work zone also includes West John Deere Road from Iowa Highway 3 to Herber Road. Additional grading and road realignments and paving work will follow at a later date.
