RYDER, N.D. (AP) _ Work is under way to raise a portion of a

state highway near Ryder to protect the road from flooding.

Some of state Highway 28 in northwest North Dakota was flooded last year

and impassable for a time.

State Transportation Department spokeswoman Jamie Olson says the

$7.4 million project is being funded with federal money. The

project covers 1.6 miles.

Olson says the work is slated to be completed by the end of

October.
