ST. LOUIS – The public is invited to help celebrate completion of the $278 million I-270 North Project at a Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Tuesday, December 12 at 11 a.m. The celebration will be held near the I-270/US 67 (N. Lindbergh) Interchange at 1 Village Square Drive, Hazelwood, MO. 63042. The official ribbon cutting is scheduled to take place immediately following the guest speakers.

- Improved accessibility for bicyclists and pedestrians with a multi-use path from Lindbergh (Route 67) to Breezy Point along Dunn, and from Hanley/Graham to Old Halls Ferry along Pershall
