JACKSON COUNTY – The Missouri Department of Transportation will be closing two lanes on westbound Interstate 670 at Troost Avenue at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 2 until 5 a.m. the following morning. Following this lane closure, on Thursday morning, Aug. 3, the lane reduction will switch to one lane and will last for the next two weeks. These lane reductions are for bridge repairs in the right lane. All work is weather permitting.
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.
