ST. LOUIS – Drivers who use the southbound I-270 to access westbound I-70 should be relieved to know that the ramp will reopen by noon today. Drivers will also be able to access the westbound I-70 ramp from St. Charles Rock Road.
Crews closed the southbound I-270 ramp to eastbound and westbound I-70 for rehabilitation on June 14. Although the westbound I-70 ramp is reopening 3 weeks ahead of schedule, the eastbound I-70 ramp remains under construction. Signed detours are marked.
As construction continues in this area, drivers are encouraged to give themselves extra time to travel as congestion is expected during peak travel times.
Drivers should pay attention, use caution and slow down while traveling through the work zone. For more information about work zones throughout the St. Louis district, please visit http://traveler.modot.org/map.
