MoDOT Will CLOSE Oldham Parkway, Jefferson Street for 90 Days
Missouri Department of Transportation crews will CLOSE a portion of Oldham Parkway AND southwest Jefferson Street from Oldham to Market Street on June 19 to realign the roadway for the future diverging diamond interchange (see map attached). It will be closed for 90 days. The department will provide access to local business. All work is weather dependent.
This work is part of the Route 50 and Route 291 Interchange project that will reconstruct the Route 291 bridges into a diverging diamond design and change the intersection of Blue Parkway, the north outer road to US 50 Highway, and Jefferson Street into a roundabout. Learn more about this project on our website.
The Missouri Department of Transportation urges all motorists to always wear safety belts, follow posted speed limits and be alert for slowed traffic, narrowed lanes or a reduced number of lanes during construction and maintenance work. And remember, every work zone is a NO PHONE ZONE.
