SIKESTON-The Missouri Department of Transportation plans to replace bridges on Route K and Route HH in Pemiscot County.
The Route K project involves replacing the bridge over Lateral Ditch No. 9, located 1.5 miles east of Route P, north of Hayti, Missouri.
The Route HH project involves replacing the bridge over Drainage Ditch 84, located 2.25 miles south of Peach Orchard, Missouri.
The projects are expected to be let in March 2019. Construction could begin as early as May 2019. As construction is underway, Route K and Route HH will be closed to through traffic in the vicinity of the bridges. Each bridge will be closed to traffic for approximately eight to 12 weeks during construction, weather permitting.
Maps, plans, and other information prepared by the Missouri Department of Transportation, or interested agency, will be available for public inspection and copying at the Missouri Department of Transportation’s Sikeston District office, 2675 N. Main St., Sikeston, MO 63801.
Any person affected by the projects may request that a public hearing be held in regard to the proposed improvements. Requests for a public hearing should be in writing and must be submitted to District Engineer Mark Shelton at P.O. Box 160, Sikeston, MO 63801, by Jan. 9, 2019.
