SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO.com) — As an impactful winter storm system continues to make its way across the northern plains, No Travel advisories and road closures continue to be issued across South Dakota.
Interstate 90 is currently closed from Mitchell to the Wyoming border, while Interstate 29 remains closed from Watertown to North Dakota.
With that, the South Dakota Department of Transportation is warning truckers and travelers that due to the closure of I-29, truck parking is currently full in Watertown.
They’re encouraging those traveling north to consider long-term parking options in Sioux Falls or Brookings in order to avoid having to turn around and travel again in hazardous conditions.
With no exact timeframe on when both Interstates will reopen, drivers should avoid traveling altogether and remain off federal, state, and county highways with No Travel advisories in effect, which is currently nearly every highway in the state.
If you must travel, check SD511.org before departing.
