HANNIBAL - Additional rainfall and the rising Missouri River has caused the flooding of MO 94 between the Washington Bridge and Dutzow. MO 94 is now closed at Dutzow and there is no northern route out of the City of Washington. "We don't know the duration of this closure," said Missouri Department of Transportation Assistant Maintenance and Traffic Engineer of the Northeast District Brian Untiedt.
