Buchanan County Route Y Now Closed at the Bee Creek Bridge

A section of Buchanan County Route Y is now closed at the Branch of Bee Creek Bridge, located north of Route 116.

The Missouri Department of Transportation closed the bridge Sunday due to barrier wall and overhang damage.

Phillips Hardy Inc. will replace the 101-year-old Branch of Bee Creek Bridge and the Branch of Bee Creek bridge located south of Route 116 near Dearborn.

There is currently no construction schedule, but MoDOT says work should finish this year.

During the closure and construction, motorists should seek an alternate route.
