JACKSON COUNTY – Crews will be making bridge deck repairs along the left two lanes of westbound Interstate 70 over Troost Ave. beginning at 9 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 28. This closure will start at approximately Prospect Ave. and continue to just past Troost Ave. and will reduce the area to ONE LANE. There will still be access to I-670 and the 13th Street exit ramp. Motorists are advised to plan ahead, leave early, or consider an alternate route if necessary. 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.
