HANNIBAL - Yesterday, August 13, the Missouri Department of Transportation awarded an emergency slide repair project located in Warren County on Route U, between Rodgers Drive and Lake Ridge Lane, approximately 1.25 miles north of Missouri Route 94.

The contract was awarded to Karrenbrock Construction, Inc. in the amount of $1,485,763.

Additional information will be released prior to the start of construction when scheduling details are available. All work will be completed by November 6, 2024.

The route was initially closed on May 9 due to roadway damage caused by shifting and unstable soil resulting from excessive rainfall. Route U will remain closed until the project is complete. The preferred detour around the closure is to use Missouri Route 94 to Missouri Route 47.
