SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — The South Dakota Department of Transportation has reopened Interstate 29 from Watertown (exit 177) to the North Dakota state line Wednesday morning.

The interstate was closed Tuesday at 7 p.m. due to hazardous driving conditions created by accumulating snow in the area.

Drivers can still expect to encounter snow/ice-covered roads. Officials say travelers should use extra caution and reduce speed while on roads.

Snow equipment will also be present on the roadways today.
