About the Project

When connected to the northern segment of Veterans Parkway, the additional nine miles of roadway for South Veterans Parkway will support a regional arterial road network around southeast Sioux Falls. This project — the final stage in connecting Interstate 29 with Interstate 90 — will accommodate growing transportation needs across the corridor and help prepare the greater Sioux Falls area for continued vibrant growth and development.

 

The first segment from Western Avenue to Cliff Avenue broke ground in June 2023. The remaining segments will continue to be designed and constructed through 2027. Learn more about each segment.
