JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Beginning this evening, April 10, one lane of Interstate 70 in each direction will close nightly for paving operations. Crews working on the Rocheport Bridge will narrow I-70 to one lane each direction between the hours of 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. These nightly lane closures will continue through the end of May. Motorists should slow down and may experience delays at the bridge.
