ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) would like to remind viewers of the planned closure of the Interstate 229 Double-Decker Bridge through downtown, an aging structure which requires frequent routine maintenance. The week of Nov. 29 will once again see MoDOT crews closing a portion of the bridge to safely conduct pavement repairs. The planned schedule of work is as follows:
Monday, Nov. 29 at 7 a.m. through Friday, Dec. 3 at noon:
- Southbound - All lanes CLOSED around-the-clock from Highland Avenue to U.S. Route 36. This includes all ramps throughout this portion of southbound I-229. Motorist should use I-29 and U.S. Route 36 during the closure.
- Northbound - One lane closed around-the-clock from U.S. Route 36 to Highland Avenue.
All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
