St. Louis County, MO – The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) announced it will close the northbound Interstate 270 exit ramp to Missouri Bottom Road for a full week starting Monday, October 20, at 9 a.m. The closure, which will remain in effect around the clock through Friday, October 24, is necessary for pavement repairs.
According to MoDOT, the work is weather permitting and part of ongoing maintenance to improve road safety and surface conditions along I-270. The closure is expected to impact traffic flow near Hazelwood and Bridgeton, particularly during peak morning and evening commute hours.
Motorists are advised to use the Route 67 (Lindbergh Boulevard) exit ramp instead. From there, drivers can turn south on Lindbergh to reach Missouri Bottom Road. Digital message boards and detour signs will be posted to help redirect traffic.
Drivers should allow for extra travel time and exercise caution in work zones.
