The Northwest Bridge Bundle will replace or rehabilitate up to 34 poor condition bridges in north central Missouri and bring them up to current standards. The majority of these bridges are on low-volume roads with less than 400 vehicles per day, though some carry a much higher traffic load. These bridges connect and serve the communities and citizens of rural northern Missouri. On average, these bridges have been in place for 71 years, with one bridge in Sullivan County reaching the 100-year mark in 2022.
Project Goals:
- Safely deliver the project within the program budget of $30 million on or before December 31, 2026.
- Use innovation and practical design to maximize the number of locations to be addressed.
- Provide quality, low maintenance structures and roadway approaches.
- Minimize the traveling public’s inconvenience through diligent construction efforts, flexibility in scheduling, and proactive communication.

MoDOT's Northwest Bridge Bundle team will evaluate the SOQs and create a short list of teams to further develop proposals for the project. The short list will be announced in June 2023.
The Request for Proposals will be released in July 2023 and will be due in the Fall of 2023.
After MoDOT's Northwest Bridge Bundle team scores the proposals, the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission will award the Design-Build team contract at their December 2023 meeting to the team with the highest scoring proposal.
Once the Design-Build contractor is selected, a construction schedule will be developed and posted on this webpage, as well as in news releases and on social media.
