MILLER COUNTY – The Missouri Department of Transportation will be closing one lane of Route 52 in various locations of Miller and Maries counties over the next two weeks in order to improve drainage.
MoDOT will be replacing culvert pipes between Route 17 in Tuscumbia and Route 133 in Maries County from Monday, January 25 until Monday, February 8. One lane will be closed between the hours of 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. through that time. Flaggers will be in place to guide motorists through the work area.
The work being done on Route 52 is in preparation for a pavement overlay project on Route 52, which is scheduled to take place in 2022.
Some delays are possible. Motorists are advised to seek an alternate route around the work area. MoDOT says they appreciate the patience of travelers while this work takes place.
The work is weather permitting and could be delayed. For more information about this project or other transportation-related matters, please call 1-888-ASK-MoDOT (275-6636) or visit www.modot.org/central. Follow the MoDOT Central Missouri District on Facebook and Twitter for project updates.
