(KAIR)--The Route DD Bridge, over Interstate 29, in Faucett, is now open.
According to the Missouri Department of Transportation, the new Buchanan County bridge opened early Thursday evening.
The bridge closed August 25 as Emery Sapp and Sons, of Columbia, Missouri, worked with MoDOT to replace the structure, which was built in 1958.
Despite the opening, work remains incomplete, with the contractor tentatively scheduling ramp work for Monday.
The plan is to close one ramp at a time for paving, with the southbound off ramp closing first at around 7:30 Monday morning, followed in order by the southbound on ramp, northbound off ramp, and finally the northbound on ramp.
As with all planned work, schedules are subject to change.
There may be other work both on and off the roadway around the bridge and the ramps as the contractor completes the project.
