Bridge Inspection

MoDOT will be inspecting some more bridges on Interstate 44. One lane of eastbound Interstate 44, just east of St. Robert will close Today (Thursday) at the Big Piney River Bridge. Ryan Waelterman with KJEL radio has more information on where there could be slow traffic impacts during your commute.

Central District Bridge Engineer Derrick Lepper says that bridges need to be inspected regularly.

Lepper tells us why one lane must be closed during bridge inspections.

MoDOT reminds all motorists to work with them by buckling up, putting their phones down, obeying all traffic signs, and slowing down in work areas.
