The Missouri National Guard is currently sandbagging along eastbound Route 60 at Fisk, Mo. from Route DD to the Route 60/51 junction. After examining the latest projections for the St. Francis River, the levee is a proactive measure to keep the route open.
MoDOT does not have plans to close Route 60 at this time. Travelers should use caution in this area and expect a lane reduction on eastbound Route 60 from Route DD to the Route 60/51 junction. In addition, the eastbound Route 60/51 ramp is currently closed.
