Washington County Bridge Replacement to Begin Next Week

WASHINGTON COUNTY – Washington County Route AA will be closed at the Fourche-A-Renault bridge, northwest of Potosi, for several months as crews work to replace the bridge.

The bridge was built in 1960 and has reached the point where replacement is necessary.

Contractors for the Missouri Department of Transportation are expected to close the road to traffic on the morning of Monday, March 16. Signs are in place to alert motorists of the closure. Motorists are asked to use Missouri Route 8 as an alternate route during the construction. The road is expected to be closed for up to five months.

This project is weather permitting and could be delayed.
