For those that travel down R16 to Hwy 6 please be aware. There will be traffic signals on the east section of R16. Please use caution during this time. Expected Reopening of 169 is mid to late August however that can change

Heads up! Next Tuesday July 7 Highway 169 on the south side of Adel will close both north and south, for construction. We aren't going to sugar coat it, this will be a pain for all of us.

Expect heavier traffic on Highway 6, P58, and R16. When we get information about it opening back up, we will push it here and on our app.

Safe travels.

Dallas County Emergency Management, with the Dallas County First Responder Association, will be conducting a hazmat & mass casualty exercise north of Adel at the Human Services Campus. Emergency vehicles will be staged at the Minburn Fire Department and will travel between the two locations.

You may notice an increased presence of emergency vehicles and responders throughout the area—this is only a drill.

Exercises like this help strengthen coordination, improve response times, and ensure our community is prepared for real emergencies.
