Planned Roadwork for Northwest Missouri, July 6-12

St. Joseph, Mo. - The following is a list of general highway maintenance and construction work the Missouri Department of Transportation has planned in the Northwest Missouri region for the week of July 6-12.

MoDOT will limit road construction on Independence Day to accommodate expected increased holiday travel. Work on most maintenance and construction projects will be suspended at noon Friday, July 3, and resume at 6 a.m. Monday, July 6. Some long-term traffic impacts will remain in place.

There may be moving operations, such as mowing, brush cutting and litter removal, throughout the region in addition to the work mentioned below. Inclement weather may cause schedule changes in some of the planned work. Check the MoDOT Traveler Information Map at http://traveler.modot.org, or download the app for updated information.
