Motorists pass ongoing construction as they go east Monday on Bloomfield Road near the entrance to Dalhousie Golf Club in Cape Girardeau. In addition to widening a part of Bloomfield Road, the project includes installation of storm sewers and two small prefabricated bridges and construction of an 8-foot-wide walking trail.
