ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – A resurfacing project on Atchison County U.S. Route 136 is scheduled to resume Monday, June 12. The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Phillips Hardy, Inc. to complete the project which includes resurfacing and shoulder improvement on U.S. Route 136.
Crews will begin work at G Avenue (west of Rock Port) and work their way west toward the Missouri River. U.S. Route 136 will be narrowed to one lane. Traffic will be directed through the work zone by temporary traffic signals. A 12-foot width restriction and 14-foot height restriction will be in place throughout the project.
Last year, crews completed, earthwork and base/roadway widening. Crews will continue the roadside work before the final asphalt overlay from Interstate 29 to the Missouri River is scheduled later this fall. All work is expected to be complete by December 2023.
