Route D and Route E Pavement Resurfacing in Camden, Laclede, and Dallas

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo – The Missouri Department of Transportation is holding an online public meeting and two-week comment period for an upcoming pavement improvement project on Route D in Camden and Laclede counties and Route E in Laclede and Dallas counties. The online meeting will be active from April 22 – May 6, though the meeting materials will be available after the meeting has ended.  

The current plans include: 

Route D 

  • Asphalt resurfacing from U.S. Route 54 in Camden County to Route E in Laclede County. 
  • Safety improvements on the 4.75 miles through Ha Ha Tonka State Park will require the acquisition of additional right of way. These safety improvements include: 
    • New shoulders. 
    • Centerline rumble stripes. 
    • Shifting the road away from the historic post office. 

Route E 

  • Asphalt resurfacing from Missouri Route 5 in Laclede County to the end of state maintenance in Dallas County. 

At this time, the traffic control plans do not include closing the road. Instead, they call for a lane closure with flaggers directing motorists through the work zone. 

The online public meeting and two-week comment period will be held April 22 – May 6. The community and interested parties can explore the proposed improvements and then submit input and ask questions through a multitude of avenues: 

  1. Online – All meeting exhibits are available on the project page and feedback may be submitted using the form.  
  2. By email – Send your comments to CDCR@modot.mo.gov with the subject line: Camden County Route D Pavement Improvement Project. 
  3. By traditional mail – Comments may be mailed to Missouri Department of Transportation, 1511 Missouri Boulevard, Jefferson City, MO 65109. Please reference: Camden County Route D Pavement Improvement Project.
