WORK IS SCHEDULED ON AREA ROADS

DELTA - A four-mile section of Route N will be closed today while workers replace corrugated pipe under the roadway.

The work will occur between the junction of Routes F and N in Bollinger County and the junctions of Routes U and N in Cape Girardeau County.

Traffic will be re-routed, according to Kenneth E. Allen, maintenance area supervisor for the Missouri State Highway Department. The roadway is scheduled to reopen at or before the end of the workday.

The highway department will close a section of Highway EE near Chaffee in Scott County for similar work on Wednesday. The location is 1.15 miles west of the Route 77 and Route EE junction. The roadway is to be reopened at the close of the workday.

Allen asks that motorists reduce speed in the work area and obey all instructions of flag persons and warning signs.
