St. Joseph, Mo. – Several St. Joseph area bridges are scheduled to close for bridge maintenance beginning Monday, May 22. Crews from the Missouri Department of Transportation will close the roadway while completing bridge/ramp repairs and yearly maintenance. The tentative schedule is as follows:
- May 22: Westbound U.S. Route 36 to Interstate 229 south turn lane
- May 23: I-229 ramp to U.S. Route 36 west
- May 30: Cook Road bridge over I-29
- May 31: Gene Field bridge over I-29
- June 5: Route AC bridge over U.S. Route 36
The project is scheduled to be complete by mid-June. Motorists will need to seek an alternate route. All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
