Nodaway County US Route 136 Bridge Projects Will Soon Be Underway

NODAWAY COUNTY, MO – Contractors working with the Missouri Department of Transportation will soon begin replacement of the Mozingo Creek Bridge on US Route 136 in Nodaway County. Since the roadway will be closed during construction, the number of working days will be condensed with all work to be completed no later than May 1st.

The replacement of the Long Creek Bridge on US Route 136 will be done under staged construction, with half of the bridge being constructed at a time. The roadway will remain open, however motorists can expect delays as traffic will be directed through the one-lane work zone by temporary traffic signals.

The Long Creek Bridge project can begin as early as May, once the Mozingo Creek Bridge is reopened, and must be completed by December.

Both projects are a part of Governor Parson’s Focus on Bridges program and will cost just over $3 million to complete.
