I-70 ramp closures planned next week at Exit 117

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Local crews from the Missouri Department of Transportation plan to close the on- and off-ramps on Interstate 70 at Exit 117 (Routes O and J), just east of the Rocheport Bridge, next week for routine maintenance. The on- and off-ramps for both directions will close, but each ramp will close on different days, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., according to the planned schedule below:

  • Monday, Sept. 9 – westbound off-ramp to Route J
  • Tuesday, Sept. 10 – westbound on-ramp from Route J
  • Wednesday, Sept. 11 – eastbound off-ramp to Route O
  • Thursday, Sept. 12 – eastbound on-ramp from Route O

During the ramp closures, motorists will need to use an alternate route. These dates and times are subject to change.
