Heads up, Callaway County commuters: a chunk of Route F is getting shut down next week for some tree-clearing action. The Missouri Department of Transportation crews are rolling up their sleeves on Wednesday, Feb. 4, meaning you'll have to tweak your travel plans. The roadblock kicks in at 8 a.m. and sticks around until 3 p.m., stretching from County Road 323 all the way to County Road 257, MoDOT reports.
If your driveway’s tucked in that stretch, no sweat—you're free to come and go, but for everyone else, you'll need to chart a new course, because through traffic is off the table. MoDOT's dropping a courtesy reminder for folks to keep it safe—snap those seatbelts, keep your eyes peeled for signs, and ditch the phone distractions, they've got workers out there and they're asking for a wide berth.
When you're zipping through a work zone, take it slow and steady. You're not just keeping the workers safe, but you're also covering your own back. So, let's show some common road courtesy and help everyone get through their day without a hitch.
Looking for the 411 on traffic snags or just some solid travel tips? Ring up MoDOT at 1-888-ASK-MoDOT (275-6636), or take a peek at their Traveler Information Map. And hey, MoDOT's not stuck in the pre-social media age, they're keeping it fresh 24/7 across their networks, so give the MoDOT Central Missouri District folks a follow for all the latest updates.
