Grundy County Route 6 Intersection improvement project moving to Phase 2

Route W to close at Route 6 tomorrow

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – An intersection improvement project on Grundy County Route 6 at the intersections of 30th Avenue and Route 146/W, located just west of Trenton, will be moving to Phase 2 of construction beginning tomorrow, Saturday, July 8. The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Phillips Hardy, Inc. to complete the project which includes widening Route 6 at both intersections and constructing dedicated left and right turn lanes. 

The project is being constructed in two phases following the below updated schedule:  

  • Phase 1: 30th Avenue intersection – will be completed and the 30th Avenue intersection reopened on July 8.  
  • Phase 2: Route 146/W intersection – crews are scheduled to begin construction Saturday, July 8, and expect to complete the project in early October. Access to/from Route W will be closed during this phase. East and westbound traffic on Route 6 will still be able to access Route 146 to travel north towards Crowder State Park, but should expect delays.   

During Phase 2, Route 6 will continue to be narrowed to one lane. Traffic will be directed through the work zone by temporary traffic signals. A 12-foot width restriction will be in place throughout the project.
