REMINDER: CASS AND JACKSON COUNTIES – The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is seeking public input regarding Interstate 49 Corridor Upgrades in Cass and Jackson Counties. The comment period opened at 4 p.m. on Thurs., Oct. 2 until 4 p.m. on Thurs. Oct. 16. The public is invited to leave questions and comments on the project webpage. A public meeting was held on Thursday, Oct. 2 from 4:30 pm until 6:30 pm at Mill Creek Upper Elemenary School located at 308 S Cleveland Ave, Belton, MO 64012.
The purpose of the project is to improve traffic flow and safety along the I-49 corridor in Jackson and Cass Counties.
