A bridge replacement project on Missouri 133 over Sugar Creek in Osage County is nearing completion. The bridge, located in Meta, is scheduled to open to traffic around noon today.
Work began in early March on the bridge replacement, which is part of the Missouri Department of Transportation's Safe and Sound Bridge Improvement Program to improve 802 of the state's worst bridges by the end of 2012. Currently, more than 680 of the bridges included in the program have been improved statewide.
