Stone & Taney Counties – A project to upgrade sidewalks to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, along various routes in Stone and Taney Counties, to begin the week of August 15, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
At times, driveways and business entrances may be gravel as crews remove sections of sidewalks that run across to install new pavement. Contractor crews, working with the businesses, are ensuring access to all businesses remain open during the work.
Drivers are urged to use caution as they travel over gravel at times at driveways and business entrances to reach their destinations.
Here’s a look at the project:
- Contractor crews upgrading sidewalks to conform to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements, including replacing sidewalk, removing sidewalks, and installing crosswalks, curb ramps and pedestrian signals
- Work will be done in the following locations:
- Missouri Route 248 between Carr Street and Community Church Lane in Galena
