SIKESTON – Route U in Reynolds County will be reduced to one lane as Contractor crews resurface the roadway.
This section of roadway is located between Route 49 and County Road 204 near Lesterville, Missouri.
Weather permitting, work will take place Friday, May 19 through Friday, May 26 from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
This project is part of Gov. Parson’s Rural Road program. The state’s approved Fiscal Year 2023 budget provided an additional $100 million in General Revenue for work on Missouri’s low volume rural roads. Using asset management data, MoDOT has identified approximately 1700 lane miles of low volume roads ranked in Poor Condition. By the end of this summer, these 113 locations will receive resurfacing treatments of hot asphalt to improve the road conditions.
The work zone will be marked with signs. Motorists are urged to use extreme caution while traveling near the area.
