Attention, Fair Play residents and anyone planning late-night travels through Polk County this coming Thursday—keep in mind you'll need to reroute. According to MoDOT, contractor crews for the City of Fair Play will be getting down to the nitty-gritty with some crucial water line work. This means Missouri Route 32, known to locals as 1st Street, will be all closed up at Ash Street from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. on October 23.
If you're a night owl or just trying to make it home without a hassle, note there won't be a signed detour to guide you. The call is to seek out an alternate route and steer clear of the work zone. It’s a slight inconvenience sure, but the nocturnal construction means less daytime traffic woes. Electronic message boards will broadcast updates near the planned road work, giving drivers a heads-up as they approach the area.
The closure is poised to impact all lanes of 1st Street at Ash Street, where the crews are set to perform their tasks. If you're scratching your head wondering what this might mean for your overnight plans or early morning commute, MoDOT has got you covered. They recommend checking their Traveler Information Map, which will have the latest on road closings and traffic impacts, helping you navigate the night with fewer surprises.
