NOW OPEN: Ramps from Blue Ridge Blvd. and U.S. 40 to EB I-70, Feb. 9

JACKSON COUNTY – MoDOT has completed work on the following ramps as part of the Blue Ridge Blvd. bridge over Interstate 70 replacement project.

NOW OPEN: Friday, Feb. 9

  • Ramp from Blue Ridge Blvd. to EB I-70

* There will be a brief closure of this ramp at approximately 9 a.m. on Monday, Feb. 12 for fence installation.

  • Ramp from US-40 to EB I-70

These ramp closures were extended due to weather after the completion and opening of the Blue Ridge Blvd. bridge over I-70 in late 2023. This project was the final bridge to be completed in Gov. Mike Parson’s $351 million Focus on Bridges program. Project information is available at Interstate 70 Bridge Replacement at Blue Ridge Boulevard in Jackson | Missouri Department of Transportation (modot.org).
