MoDOT to Close Northbound Route 61/67 at Richardson Road March 24-26

Southbound Lanes to Be Reduced

ST. LOUIS – MoDOT will close a portion of Route 61/67 in Jefferson County next weekend. All lanes of northbound Route 61/67 between Richardson Road and Industrial Drive will close on Friday, March 24 at 7 p.m. so crews can replace a pipe under the road. Local traffic only will be allowed through the closure location. Drivers can detour around the closure by taking Richardson Road to I-55 to Route 61/67.

In addition, the left lane on southbound Route 61/67 will be closed between Fox Pointe Parkway and Betty Drive. All lanes of northbound and southbound Route 61/67 will open by Monday, March 27 at 5 a.m.

Crews will then close the left lane in both directions of Route 61/67 between Fox Pointe Drive and Lunderhof Drive from Monday, March 27 through Monday, April 17.

 This is the first in a series of lane closures necessary for a project that will

resurface Route 61/67 from Route M to just south of Church Road. For more information on the project, go to http://www.modot.org/stlouis/major_projects/Route61-67Improvements.htm.
