The South Dakota Department of Transportation says a chip seal application will be applied on Highway 14 and Highway 14B in Brookings today.

The chip seal on Highway 14 will include west of Western Avenue to the intersection of Highway 14B and east of 34th Avenue to one mile east of the intersection of Highway 14B.

Highway 14B will be chip sealed in its entirety both west and east of I-29 along the north edge of Brookings.

Loose gravel will be present for 36 to 72 hours after each day’s chip seal application.

Traffic should travel at 40 mph or the posted speed limit if it is less than that.

Completion of the project is expected by June 14.
