MoDOT to Hold Public Hearing to Discuss Route 95 Project in Mountain Grove

SIKESTON-The Missouri Department of Transportation will hold a public hearing from 4 to 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 14 to discuss proposed improvements to Route 95 in Mountain Grove, Missouri.

The hearing will be held at the Mountain Grove Senior Center, located at 700 East State Street in Mountain Grove, Missouri.

The project will include widening Route 95 to include a center left-turn lane from near the U.S. 60 Interchange to Business 60 and a 5-lane roadway from the Route 60 eastbound ramps to 17th Street in Mountain Grove, Missouri. The project also includes the construction of two roundabouts at the intersections of 3rd Street/Route 95 and at Route 95 and the eastbound on/off ramps.

In an effort to improve safety, access points along the corridor will be removed. Sidewalks will be improved in compliance with the current standards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

The public hearing will be open house style, and visitors can stop-by anytime between 4 and 6 p.m. to discuss the details of the projects with the project team.

The meeting materials, including a handout and an opportunity to comment, are available on the project website at www.modot.org/Route95Wright. Comments will be accepted through Dec. 5.
