Route 50 at Mt. Sterling Back Open to Traffic

JEFFERSON CITY – Route 50 at Mt. Sterling in Gasconade County is now open to traffic after being closed since Monday because of flooding.

While flooded highways throughout the state are gradually opening up, there are still numerous roads under water. Motorists are encouraged to check MoDOT’s Traveler Information Map, located at www.modot.org, or call the department’s toll free number at 1-888-ASK-MODOT to get updated road conditions.

Motorists should take extra care in their travels during this time and never attempt to get around roadway barriers or drive across flooded roadways. MoDOT also recommends allowing extra travel time if detours are necessary.
