Road closures are becoming more prevalent across parts of Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois as floodwaters continue to rise on the Mississippi River. The city of Dubuque says the rising waters of Catfish Creek are forcing a road closure. Mar Jo Hills Road will be closed between Rockdale Road and Inland Lane until further notice due to rising river levels. In Cassville, portions of several streets, including Jack Oak Road, Iowa Street, Front Street and Wyota Street, are closed due to high waters. In Bagley, roads west of the railroad tracks will be closed starting at 6 p.m. Wednesday. Numerous road closures are also in effect in Prairie du Chien, including portions of North Main Street, Washington Street, 1st Street, Lockwood Street, Prairie Street and Wells Street. All of St. Feriole Island is also closed to the public. Most of East Dubuque is above water, with the exception of homes on Basten, which is in a low-laying area. Officials anticipate the East Dubuque’s levee will keep river waters out of the city’s downtown.
