NEWTOWN, Mo. – The bridge on Sullivan County Route EE over the Medicine Creek Bridge just east of Newtown is scheduled reopen by the evening of Monday, Sept. 9, 2019. The bridge was closed this spring due to damage from flooding. Contractors from Chester Bross Construction Company, Inc., working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, began work in June to complete repairs and replace the bridge deck.
All work is weather permitting and subject to change. Motorists are urged to use caution and obey all traffic control, including not moving or going around barricades and following posted detours.
For more information about the closure, please call 1-888-ASK-MODOT (1-888-275-6636). For information about regional flooding, visit modot.org/2019-northwest-missouri-flooding
