Districts Impacted
The Route CC bridge over South Moreau Creek in Moniteau County is slated for rehabilitation work in 2026. Built in 1966, the supporting structure is in good condition, but the driving surface has deteriorated and needs to be replaced.
The proposed plans call for closing Route CC with a signed detour throughout construction.
PROJECT PROGRESS
The Missouri Department of Transportation designed a new bridge deck. The plans for the new deck, which will be the same width as the existing structure, include new approach pavement and installing new guardrail.
This project is not expected to require any new right-of-way acquisition.
The estimated total cost (engineering and construction) for this project is $1.1 million. This cost may change.
During the two-week comment period that ran July 31 – Aug. 14, 2025, the community and interested parties had multiple avenues to learn about, ask questions, and submit input regarding the planned work and associated traffic impacts.
- In-person - An open-house-style public meeting was held on Thursday, Aug. 7, 2025, from 4:30 to 6 p.m. at the Moreau Fire Protection District Station 4, located at 21705 Highway 52 in Barnett. The project team was on hand to answer questions, provide information, and receive input about the project. There was no formal presentation, so attendees could come and go as they pleased at any time during the advertised hours.
