Work on Highway 6 from Interstate 35 in Daviess County to Muddy Creek Bridge, east of Trenton will begin late next week.
The project is to resurface, improve shoulders, and rehabilitate sidewalks.
The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Emery Sapp & Sons, Inc. to complete the project. The sidewalk rehabilitation portion of the work is to ensure compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Crews plan to begin Thursday, on the east end of the project with the relocation of water lines. This work will require the removal of sidewalks, moving the water line, and replacing the sidewalk in various locations, mainly east of the railroad bridge.
For the water line replacement and other sidewalk work, crews will move block-by- block westward until this phase of the project is completed. Some lane closures and turning restrictions may be necessary. Some side road closures may also be necessary.
After the sidewalk portion of the project is complete, crews will resurface Highway 6 within the project limits. During resurfacing, Highway 6 will be narrowed to one lane and a pilot car and flaggers will direct motorists through the work zone.
