ST. JOSEPH, Mo – The second of seven bridges included in a rehabilitation project on Carroll County U.S. Route 24 will narrow today and an adjacent ramp will also close. The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Capital Paving and Construction, LLC to complete the rehabilitation project on the seven bridges in the Carrollton area.
Today, Aug. 18, before noon, the bridge on U.S. Route 24/65 over Missouri Route 10, Outer Road 24 and the Norfolk Southern Railroad will narrow to one lane. Temporary traffic signals will direct motorists through the work zone.
The adjacent ramp from Route 10 to northbound U.S. Route 24/65 will also close by noon today. These traffic restrictions are both scheduled to be in place through early December.
As part of the project, on Monday, Aug. 15, crews narrowed the Moss Creek Drainage Ditch Bridge on U.S. Route 24/65 approximately 4 miles south of Missouri Route 10. The bridge is also expected to remain narrowed into December. Temporary traffic signals are in place at this location as well.
Crews will be working five days each week but work zones and ramp closure will remain in place around-the-clock. Some work may be completed on Saturdays, if necessary.
The other bridges in the project are currently scheduled for the 2023 construction season. For more information about the bridges included in the project, visit www.modot.org/carroll-county-us-route-24-bridge-rehabilitations.
