Resurfacing scheduled for U.S. Route 69 and Route 6 in Daviess and Grundy counties

TRENTON, Mo. – Resurfacing is scheduled to begin soon on U.S. Route 69 from Interstate 35 to Route 6 and Route 6 from U.S. Route 69 to the Muddy Creek Bridge just east of U.S. Route 65 in Trenton. The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Emery Sapp & Sons, Inc. to complete the multi-stage project to resurface and improve shoulders throughout the project limits and to rehabilitate sidewalks within the city of Trenton.

The current planned schedule of work is:

  • May 7 – end of August: Sidewalk rehabilitation within the city of Trenton
  • July 9 – July 24: Asphalt overlay on U.S. Route 69 and Route 6 from I-35 to Route V west of Jamesport (The roadway between Route V and Trenton will receive a different surface treatment under a separate contract.)
  • July 13 – 24: Signal work on Route 6 at Harris Avenue in Trenton
  • July 27 – 30: Asphalt overlay on Route 6 within the city limits of Trenton from the railroad bridge to the the Muddy Creek Bridge.
  • July 27 – Aug. 14: Rumble strips, guardrail and pavement marking installation
  • Aug. 3 – 12: Signal work on Route 6 at Main Street in Trenton
  • Late August: After all sidewalk work is completed, asphalt overlay on the remaining sections of roadway in Trenton
  • Aug. 26 – Sept. 1: Pavement marking within the city limits of Trenton

During the resurfacing west of Trenton, roadways will be narrowed to one lane and a pilot car and flaggers will direct motorists through the work zone. Where the roadway is four-lane in Trenton, one lane each direction may be closed. A 12-foot width restriction throughout the project will be in place until all work is complete. Motorists will encounter delays and may wish to seek an alternate route.

All work is weather-permitting and schedules are subject to change. Motorists are urged to stay alert and pay attention to all roadway signing and barricades and to eliminate distractions, as crews will be working in close proximity to the traveling public. Please remember that all work zones are NO PHONE zones. Buckle up. Phone down. Arrive Alive.
