Mid-Missourians should prepare for roadwork across several counties from December 1-7, including culvert replacements, bridge rehabilitations, and pedestrian facility upgrades, which may cause lane closures and delays. Drivers are advised to exercise caution around work zones, with Boone County’s Route 124 and Callaway County’s Routes E and J seeing single-lane, flagger-controlled traffic, while Columbia’s Route TT improvements continue toward November completion, according to the Missouri Department of Transportation.

I-70 commuters should expect long-term impacts due to ongoing construction under the "Improve I-70 Program," set to continue until 2027. In Cole County, U.S. Route 50 will have pedestrian facility upgrades with potential right-turn lane closures from Broadway, Jefferson, and Monroe streets between 6:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, as reported by the Missouri Department of Transportation.

Mid-Missouri drivers should expect roadwork and travel delays from December 1-7. U.S. Route 63 will have a reroute at the Route AC (Grindstone Parkway) interchange while Lenoir Street remains closed, with work expected to finish in early December 2025. Laclede, Maries, and Morgan counties will have daily lane restrictions for maintenance and culvert replacements. Single-lane travel and delays are expected in these areas, as stated by the Missouri Department of Transportation.
