ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The Grundy County Route W bridge over Hickory Creek is open following a bridge replacement project. Phillips Hardy, Inc., working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, began the project in April. Crews were able to reopen this section of Route W between Routes WW and F to all traffic today, Aug. 18.
A separate, on-going project will continue to affect motorists who regularly use Grundy County Route W:
- Safety improvements on Grundy County Route 6 at Route W, which includes the addition of a turn lane on Route 6. Access to and from Route W at Route 6 is currently closed. The project is expected to be complete, and intersection reopened in late September 2023.
All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
MoDOT asks drivers to work with us by always buckling up, keeping your phone down, slowing down and moving over in work zones. Know before you go and check what work zones you might encounter at traveler.modot.org.
