Where: Eastbound I-44 traffic over Niangua River at Mile Marker 105.4 in Webster County east of Marshfield
When: Beginning now until approximately midnight, Tuesday, May 23
Details: Drivers will encounter one lane of traffic on eastbound I-44 over the Niangua River at Mile Marker 105.4 while contractor crews repair the shoulder. Once repairs are completed, two lanes of traffic will be allowed to travel eastbound on the interstate. There is no signed detour and drivers are encouraged to find an alternate route.
This work was part of a three-year project to improve 25 bridges within 15 miles of I-44 across the Southwest District. Of the 25 bridges in the project, known as the I-44 Corridor Bridge Bundle, seven (7) are mainline I-44 bridges, five (5) are I-44 overpass bridges and the remaining bridges are on adjacent routes over various features. Sixteen (16) bridges will be replaced and nine (9) bridges will receive major rehabilitation work.
More information about this project can be found on the project website – I-44 Corridor Bridge Bundle.
