Additional Overnight Lane Closures on U.S. 50 in Fallon

NDOT continuing to improve the main road through town
Additional Overnight Lane Closures on U.S. 50 in Fallon

Author: Rachel Dahl

To improve public safety, portions of the U.S. 50/Williams Avenue eastbound outside lane and shoulder in Fallon from approximately Tedford Lane to Maine Street will be closed 24-hours-a-day, potentially up to seven days a week starting April 6 through late spring. The closure is needed for the safety of drivers because the roadway narrows through the middle segment of the NDOT construction project.

Drivers will still have one eastbound lane still open. The work zone and traffic control will be in place, even when workers are not present, requiring a 24-hour closure at times. At least one business and residential access will be maintained. The lane closure may occur in two or three block segments and is subject to change.

What: Outside lane closure on US 50 eastbound in Fallon

When: Beginning Wednesday, April 6 through late spring, 24-hours-a-day, potentially up to seven-days-a-week

Where: US 50 eastbound from Tedford Lane to Maine Street

Please exercise caution and safety when going through the construction zone whether on foot in a vehicle.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
