JEFFERSON CITY, Mo - The Moniteau County Route CC bridge over South Moreau Creek , north of Eldon, is now open. After replacing the bridge deck (driving surface) , construction crews were able to reopen the bridge to all traffic on Friday, June 2 6 , 2026 - ahead of schedule.
Crews from Gene Haile Excavating, Inc , working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, closed Route CC over South Moreau Creek on April 20 to replace the bridge's driving surface. Built in 19 6 6, the supporting structures of the bridge are in good condition. The driving surface, however, had deteriorated, was in poor condition, and needed to be replaced.
The new bridge deck has new concrete barriers and new guardrail at all four corners of the bridge.
