Nebraska Public Power District is planning infrastructure work Monday near 39th Street and A Avenue in east-central Kearney, according to a city press release.
The intersection is expected to reopen on Thursday, May 23, weather permitting. Due to the often-heavy volume of traffic in the area, motorists are urged to use extreme caution when traveling through the work zone, stay off cell phones, and watch out for equipment and crew members.
