An effort to increase safety and make driving surface improvements on various roadways in Osage, Gasconade and Phelps counties will be taking place over the next several months.
A contractor working for the Missouri Department of Transportation has begun pavement and shoulder improvement work on Route CC from U.S. 50, south of Linn, to the end of state maintenance.
As part of this project, the contractor will also be conducting pavement and shoulder improvement work on Route B from Missouri 28, near Bland to Missouri 68 in St. James. The work is expected to begin later this spring.
The work will require daily lane closures with flaggers and pilot vehicles guiding motorists through the work zones.
The project is expected to be completed by November.
