(KLZA)-- A pavement improvement project which was to close Holt County U.S. Route 159 Monday through Wednesday next week has been pushed back by two days.
The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Phillips Hardy, Inc. to complete the project which will now close the roadway around-the-clock Wednesday, Aug. 31 through Friday, Sept. 2
U.S. Route 159 will close from Route 111 near Forest City to the Little Tarkio Creek Bridge west of Route P. The intersection at Route P south of Fortescue will be closed with no access from Route P to U.S. Route 159. The intersection at Route 111 north of Forest City will remain open.
During the closure, motorists must use an alternate route.
Railroad maintenance will close Holt County Route 111 just north of U.S. Route 159 on Monday, Aug. 29. Contractors working with BNSF Railroad, under a permit from the Missouri Department of Transportation, will close the roadway Monday, Aug. 29, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. The project is expected to only take one day to complete.
During the closure, motorists must use an alternate route.
