I-55 Bridge Improvement Project Faces Delays and Traffic Disruptions
The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) has announced significant delays in the bridge improvement project on Interstate 55 near Loughborough Avenue. The $63 million project, which aims to rehabilitate 13 pairs of bridges, has been extended into 2025 due to damage to several girders during the surface removal process. The damaged girders will need to be repaired or replaced, causing a delay in the project timeline.
