CLAYTON COUNTY, IA – Beginning on Monday, July 28, 2025, at 7:00 AM, Coffee Hill Road (commonly referred to as Coffee Road) will be closed to facilitate a bridge replacement project, as announced by the Clayton County Road Department. This closure will impact a 2.67-mile section from Tollgate Road/Avenue to Ridge Road, fully barring access at the bridge site for the entire duration of the construction.
The undertaking, overseen by a contractor for Clayton County, includes the dismantling and installation of an aging bridge aimed at improving safety and structural soundness. The estimated duration of the construction is projected to be between 8 to 10 weeks, contingent upon weather variables, with an expected conclusion in late September or early October 2025. During this timeframe, no through traffic will be allowed in the work zone, and motorists are encouraged to identify alternative routes.
The Clayton County Road Department has underscored the significance of this initiative to ensure secure infrastructure for both residents and visitors. Detour signs will be prominently displayed, and updates regarding the progress of the project will be accessible on the department’s website.
