ST. LOUIS – Drivers should be aware that the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) will close New Florissant Road between Dunn Road and Pershall Road (directly under I-270) from 8 p.m. Friday, July 8 until 8 a.m. Saturday, July 9. The closure will allow MoDOT to pave the first portion of the new eastbound I-270 bridge over New Florissant Road.
Detours for New Florissant Road are as follows:
Southbound traffic will bypass construction by traveling west on Dunn Road to travel south on Hanley Avenue/Graham Road, to travel east on Pershall Road back to New Florissant Road.
Northbound traffic will bypass construction by taking Pershall Road east to access the U-turn bridge near Washington Street/Elizabeth Avenue to travel west on Dunn Road back to New Florissant Road.
The closure and construction work are part of the $278 million I-270 North Project infrastructure upgrades. To stay updated on the status of this closure and to view a project overview and graphic displays of planned construction, please visit the I-270 North Project website at: www.i270north.org.
