MoDOT hearing will discuss Cape County bridge

The Missouri Department of Transportation will hold a public meeting from 4 to 6 p.m. March 29 to discuss upcoming improvements to the Route V bridge over Big Indian Creek in Cape Girardeau County. The meeting will be held at North Elementary School in Jackson.

It will have an open-house format, allowing visitors to talk one-on-one with a member of the project team. No formal presentation will be given. The project will include replacing the deck of the bridge, which is about a half-mile south of Highway 177. Work is expected to begin in spring 2013 with completion that fall.

For more information, call project manager Tim Richmond at 573-472-5290, transportation project designer Jeff Wachter at 573-472-5294 or 888-275-6636. To view the meeting handout or comment, visit www.modot.org/southeast.
