ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – Two northwest Missouri routes will soon get a new driving surface. Contractors from Herzog Contracting Corporation, working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, will begin two resurfacing projects: one on Route 190 and one on U.S. Route 69. Route 190 will be resurfaced from Route U in Livingston County to Route 6 in Daviess County. U.S. Route 69 will begin after Route 190 and will be resurfaced from north of Pence Road in DeKalb County to Interstate 35 in Daviess County.
On Friday, June 9, at approximately 7 a.m., the contractor will begin milling Route 190. Crews will close the road in two-mile sections, beginning at Route U and work their way north to Route V. The portion of the project from Route V to Route 6 will be done one lane at a time with a pilot car to guide motorists through the work zone. Work will continue through mid-July. Workers will be on site Monday through Saturday from approximately 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. each day.
Work on U.S. Route 69 will begin at the southern end of the project, in Cameron, and proceed north to I-35. Crews will close one lane of U.S. Route 69 at a time with a pilot car guiding motorists through the work zone. The U.S. Route 69 portion of the project is scheduled to start in late June and continue, Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., through mid-July.
Schedules are subject to change. MoDOT encourages all motorists to slow down, buckle up, eliminate distractions and drive safely to ensure everyone is able to Arrive Alive.
