Route AB work closes Nash Road

The Missouri Department of Transportation's contractor will close Nash Road/County Road 218 from the west entrance of Do It Best Corp. to east of the sewage treatment plant entrance as part of the improvements for the Route AB extension. During the closure, the contractor will remove old pavement and place base rock for the new pavement. The closure will begin Tuesday, weather permitting, and will continue through Thursday. Motorists should expect additional closures in July as the paving process continues with work completed by fall. The entire project includes grading and paving along the Route AB extension. Once completed, the improvements will directly connect Highway 25 and Interstate 55.
