I-29 in Holt, Andrew Counties to be resurfaced beginning March 5

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted Herzog Contracting Corp. to resurface a section of Interstate 29 from U.S. Route 59 in Holt County to Business 71 just north of St. Joseph beginning Wednesday, March 5.

The project will begin in the southbound passing (left) lane. Crews will remove then replace the pavement in 2-mile sections. Once paving is complete on the roadway, crews will repave the ramps along the portion of interstate.

Traffic Impacts: During construction, I-29 will be narrowed to one lane beginning on the southbound lanes, then switch to the northbound lanes.  

Crews are scheduled to work Monday-Saturday during daylight hours. All work is scheduled to be completed by July 2025.

All work is weather-permitting, and schedules are subject to change. MoDOT asks drivers to work with us by always buckling up, keeping your phones down, slowing down and moving over in work zones. Know before you go and check what work zones you might encounter at traveler.modot.org.
