Emergency bridge repair forces I-29 detour

Beginning at about 8:30 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 8, MoDOT closed all lanes of northbound Interstate 29 at U.S. 169 for emergency bridge joint repairs.

This closure is anticipated to be in place until approximately the afternoon of Tuesday, Aug. 9. Northbound I-29 traffic will be routed to northbound U.S. 169. The suggested detour route is northbound U.S. 169 to westbound Hwy. 152 to northbound I-29.

All work is weather permitting.

Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
