Road work will slow down some drivers in and around Pella.

Vermeer Road from 240th to 250th street, south of Vermeer Corporation will be closed Thursday and Friday for road repairs. It is expected to reopen to all traffic on Saturday. Improvements to the water distribution system continue on West 3rd Street from Independence Street to Union Street north of Central College’s campus. That portion of road will reopen–weather permitting–by Friday afternoon.
