MoDOT to close ramp from eastbound I-64 to Ballas for two months

ST. LOUIS – Drivers heading to the hospitals near I-64 and Ballas Road in St. Louis County should allow themselves extra time starting next week.

Crews will close the ramp from eastbound I-64 to Ballas (Exit 26) July 30 at midnight for two months. During the closure, crews will be rehabilitating the ramp bridge as part of continuing on-going maintenance around the interchange.

All work is weather permitting. The ramp will remain closed until October.

To detour around the closure, drivers should remain on eastbound I-64 until Spoede (Exit 27).  They can cross over the interstate and return westbound to exit at Ballas (Exit 26).

The ramp from northbound and southbound I-270 to Ballas Road will remain open, although it will continue to be narrowed to one lane through until September.
