HANNIBAL – The Missouri Department of Transportation will close lanes on Interstate 64 and Interstate 70 for survey work connected to the Improve I-70 Project #2. All work is weather permitting.
Crews will close the left lane of westbound I-64 between Route K and Prospect Road daily from 6 a.m. to noon Monday April 15 through Friday, April 19.
The left lane of eastbound I-64 will be closed between Prospect Road and Route K daily from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. Friday, April 19 through Thursday, April 25. These closures are in preparation for a I-64 widening project to add a third lane between the I-70/I-64 interchange and Route K. This project has been incorporated into the Improve I-70 Project #2.
In addition, the following lane closures will also affect locations on I-70 in St. Charles and Warren Counties:
- Crews will close the left lane on eastbound I-70 between David Hoekel Parkway and Wentzville Parkway daily from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. Monday, April 15 through Friday, April 19.
- A lane restriction will be in place on westbound I-70 in Warren County at the Missouri Route 47/I-70 interchange extending approximately 3,900 feet beginning at 9 p.m. on Monday, April 15 through 6 a.m. on April 16.
- A lane restriction will be in place on westbound I-70 in Warren County, approximately one-half mile east of Wright City interchange, beginning at 9 p.m. on Monday, April 15 through 6 a.m. on April 16.
The Improve I-70 Project #2 covering the eastern portion of I-70 between Warrenton and Wentzville is tentatively set for bid in late 2024. Construction is tentatively set to take place 2025-2028.
Missouri’s FY2024 budget from the General Assembly signed into law by Governor Parson provides $2.8 billion in General Revenue for the costs to build a third lane of I-70 across the state. The program will plan, design, construct, reconstruct, rehabilitate, and add a third lane in each direction on nearly 200 miles of I-70, from Blue Springs to Wentzville.
