JEFFERSON CITY, Mo – Miller County Route C is now open to traffic after closing in May for a bridge deck replacement project. The Missouri Department of Transportation contracted with S & A Equipment & Builders, LLC for a rehabilitation project to replace the bridge decks of the Brumley Creek and Mill Creek bridges on Miller County Route C. Both bridges were built in 1966 and the decks were in poor condition.
The replacement of the Brumley Creek Bridge’s deck is now complete, and Route C reopened today, Friday, Sept. 1. Single-lane closures may be necessary to complete some aspects of the project, but the bridge is expected to remain open.
Crews expect to close the Mill Creek Bridge, also located on Route C just south of Route 42, on Monday, Sept. 18. The bridge is expected to remain closed into December with drivers using the same signed detour as they did during the Brumley Creek Bridge portion of the project: Missouri Route 42, U.S. Route 54, and Route A.
