Heads up, drivers—MoDOT has announced a couple of nights of closures that you'll want to factor into your late-night commutes. Starting Monday, Aug. 18th through Tuesday, Aug. 19th, if you've got plans to hit the eastbound I-70 exit ramp to Route 115 (also known as Natural Bridge), you'll need to reroute. The official statement from the Missouri Department of Transportation notes that the ramp will be out of commission from 7 p.m. until 5 a.m. on these dates for some essential maintenance work, so plan ahead.

MoDOT has announced upcoming maintenance work on I-70 but has not specified the type of work to be done. The schedule suggests the work is planned during lower traffic hours to minimize disruption. No official detour routes have been provided, so drivers may need to rely on GPS or alternate routes. Some delays are expected on detour roads during the two nights of work.
