Plan Your Visit: Detour Information

Getting here just got a slight twist, but we’re making it as smooth as possible!

Due to a long-term project by the Iowa DOT, the I-35 Exit 102 (Iowa 210 near Huxley) is closed through November 2025.

We recommend taking Exit 96 or using your favorite navigation app (like Google Maps) for the best route. The DOT has marked detour signs using 126th Ave/Polk Co. Rd F-22, U.S. 69, and IA-210.

Traveling from north of Ames? Consider taking Highway 30 (Exit 111) for an easier detour route.

We appreciate the hard work of the Iowa DOT to improve our infrastructure—and thank you for your patience while improvements are made!
