According to MoDOT, traffic will remain limited to one lane as crews finish clean-up work. The contractor has worked as quickly as possible to complete the repairs and get the bridge open again.

Friendly Reminder for MoDOT

Plenty of Illinois and Missouri drivers are doing a happy dance right now! Just remember to take it slow while crews finish up.
