Preparing For A Detour – Highway 190 Closing For Three Days

The Bridge on Highway 190, west of Chillicothe will be closed beginning Wednesday evening to allow for a concrete pour for the new bridge deck.  The contractors will have to close the road for a few days.

Highway 190 at the Thompson River Bridge will close to traffic Wednesday, starting at 8:00 pm.  Emergency vehicles ONLY will be permitted to cross the bridge beginning Thursday morning.  Non-emergency traffic will not be permitted to use the bridge until Saturday at 3:00 pm.

When the bridge reopens, it will again be open to only one lane, with the 10-foot width restriction in place.

A signed detour will be in place, directing motorists over Highway 190, US 65, and Highway 6 through Trenton and Jamesport.
