MoDOT to close ramp, lane on eastbound Poplar Street Bridge overnight Tuesday

ST. LOUISDrivers who are heading from St. Louis into Illinois on I-64 overnight Tuesday should be aware of some construction that will impact them.

Crews will close the ramp from eastbound I-44/northbound I-55 to eastbound I-64 across the Mississippi (the Poplar Street Bridge) starting at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 19.

In addition, crews will close the left lane on eastbound I-64 across the river on the bridge, starting at 8 p.m.

The closure is to bring in and set girders between the eastbound and westbound bridges across the Mississippi as part of on-going work to add a fifth lane to eastbound I-64 across the Mississippi.

The ramp and lane will be open by 5 a.m. Wednesday, June 20.
