THE SAFE & SOUND BRIDGE PROGRAM WILL IMPROVE 802 OF MoDOT'S BRIDGES ACROSS THE STATE BY THE END OF DECEMBER 2013. THIS YEAR, IN HARRISON COUNTY ALONE, MoDOT HAS PLANNED 24 BRIDGE PROJECTS, WHICH IS MORE CONSTRUCTION THAN WILL BE DONE IN ANY OTHER COUNTY IN NORTHWEST MISSOURI. CONSTRUCTION COULD BEGIN ON SOME BRIDGES AS EARLY AS MARCH.
SOME BRIDGES WILL BE COMPLETELY REPLACED AND OTHERS WILL RECEIVE NEW BRIDGE DECKS. THE BRIDGES WILL CLOSE FOR SIX TO EIGHT WEEKS DURING CONSTRUCTION. MoDOT WILL MAKE EVERY EFFORT TO COORDINATE THESE CLOSURES TO MINIMIZE INCONVENIENCE FOR HARRISON COUNTY RESIDENTS. MoDOT WILL WORK THROUGHOUT THIS CONSTRUCTION SEASON TO KEEP RESIDENTS AWARE OF UPCOMING CLOSURES AS INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE FROM THE CONTRACTOR.
FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THIS OR OTHER PROJECTS BEING HANDLED BY MoDOT CALL 1-888-ASK-MoDOT.
