Webster County – Three state routes in Webster County are scheduled to be sealed with a mixture of rock and oil beginning the week of June 11, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
The work is tentatively scheduled to begin Monday, June 11. Here’s a look at the locations:
- Route DD between Elm Street in Marshfield and Bracken Road (Six miles)
- Missouri Route 38 between Webster County Route A and Webster County Route C (10 miles)
- Webster County Route M between Webster County Route CC west of Niangua and Route 5 in Wright County (15.5 miles)
Weather and/or construction delays could alter the work schedule
Drivers can expect one-lane traffic with flaggers and pilot vehicles directing them through the work zone. Traffic could be stopped for several minutes. Delays are expected. Drivers at side roads should wait for the pilot vehicle before entering the roadway.
Drivers are urged to use caution and reduce their speed when traveling over recently-sealed sections of highways.
A chip-seal is planned for these roads as an economical way to maintain and preserve the roadway. The treatments keep a road from deteriorating and will extend its life.
