The Highway 34 bridge over Byrd Creek in Cape Girardeau County will be reduced to one lane today as a contractor seals the bridge deck, according to a news release from the Missouri Department of Transportation. The news release said sealing the deck will help reduce wear and tear from winter road salt application, and motorists are urged to use caution in the area. The release didn't specify the times the bridge lanes would be reduced.
