Interstate 35 in Daviess County under Route 6 bridge to close overnight Aug. 7-8

Route 6 bridge deck replacement project in Daviess County

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted Capital Paving & Construction, LLC to complete a bridge deck replacement project on the Daviess County Missouri Route 6 bridge over Interstate 35 near Altamont. Interstate 35 under the Route 6 bridge will be closed overnight in both directions on Thursday, Aug. 7 while the contractor pours the bridge deck.

Traffic Impacts: I-35 under the Route 6 bridge will be closed overnight in both directions beginning at 7 p.m. on Aug. 7 and reopen by 6 a.m. on Aug. 8. During the closure, I-35 traffic will be directed up and over the ramps at Route 6 (Exit 64). There will be no access to/from Route 6 during the closure. Motorists on Route 6 will need to use U.S. Route 69 (Exit 69 to the north and Exit 61 to the south).

The Route 6 bridge expected to reopen by late August 2025.
