PLATTE COUNTY – The Missouri Department of Transportation will have an urgent lane drop in place along southbound Interstate 635 just before Horizons Parkway near Argosy Casino. A semi has crashed into the barrier wall. Once the accident has been cleared, crews will have a lane reduction in place to address the barrier wall. This lane reduction could last several weeks depending on the extent of the damage. Expect delays. All work is weather permitting.
Please remember that all work zones are NO PHONE zones. Buckle up. Phone down. Arrive Alive.
Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
