St. Joseph, Mo. – Crews from Vance Brothers, Inc., working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, plan to microsurface three separate sections of U.S. Route 36 at Wheeling and Marceline. The project, originally scheduled to begin on Monday, Oct. 2, has been postponed to Monday, Oct. 9 due to contractor delays. This high-friction surface treatment is an enhancement to assist motorists with traction on the curved section of roadway.
During treatment application, crews will narrow U.S. Route 36 to one lane around each work zone. A reduced speed limit will be in place and flaggers will be at crossovers and intersections. A 16-foot width restriction will be in place.
Crews now expect to complete the treatment project on Monday, Oct. 16.
All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
