CLAY/JACKSON COUNTIES – The Missouri Department of Transportation will make the following traffic change for pavement repair work. This work was originally slated to happen earlier this month; however, it was cancelled due to inclement weather. This work is not associated with the Buck O’Neil Bridge replacement project. All work is weather dependent.
Crews will close northbound lanes of US 169 Highway at 5th St. from 8pm, Friday, October 15 until 6am, Saturday, October 16. As a result, all northbound traffic across US 169 Highway will be closed. Motorists will need to find an alternate route.
Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
