MoDOT road projects scheduled for Southeast Missouri next week

The following MoDOT road projects are scheduled for Southeast Missouri. Poor weather may cause dates to change.

The St. Louis and Iron Mountain Railroad, at the intersection of highways 34/72, 25 and U.S. 61 in Jackson, is slated for routine maintenance Saturday. The westbound left turn lane onto Hope Street will be among the work locations.

Route HH will be reduced to one lane from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday, weather permitting. Missouri Department of Transportation workers will be making drainage repairs. The work will take place on the stretch of road one mile north of Route HH's intersection with Highway 72. Drivers should expect to see work-zone signs.

MoDOT workers are also scheduled to seal pavement on Route H between Highway 51 and Route FF in Bollinger County.
