St. Louis, MO – Drivers along southbound Interstate 270 should prepare for nightly lane closures next week as bridge work continues near Conway Road and Interstate 64, according to the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT).
The closures will take place Monday, November 10 through Wednesday, November 12. Two lanes will close each night beginning at 8 p.m., followed by a third lane closing at 10 p.m. MoDOT officials said all lanes will reopen by 5 a.m. the following morning to restore normal traffic flow for commuters.
According to MoDOT, crews will shift traffic to the right so that workers can safely complete construction in the middle of the interstate. Despite the lane closures, at least one lane will remain open throughout the work each night.
The affected area includes the stretch of I-270 over Conway Road near Ballas Medical Center and Missouri Baptist Hospital, a key route for west St. Louis County drivers traveling between I-64 and I-270.
Motorists are encouraged to use caution when driving through the work zone, follow posted signs, and allow extra time for delays during nighttime commutes.
