Crews will replace the guardrail on the northbound exit ramp from I-635 to northbound I-29. This will require a full closure of northbound I-635 at MO-9 as well as the exit ramps from northbound and southbound MO-9 to northbound I-635. Work will begin at 7 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 5 and will continue until approximately 6 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 6. Crews may need additional time for repairs. If additional time is needed, crews will begin work again at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 6 and continue until approximately 6 a.m. on Sunday, Aug. 7. Crews are also working on a separate project to replace the I-29 bridge over Route AA and I-635 northbound to I-29 southbound is also closed. Motorists are encouraged to seek alternate routes. All work is weather permitting
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.
