The 86-year old bridge over Tater Hill Creek on Carroll County Route Z will be replaced beginning next week. The Missouri Department of Transportation contracted with E & C Bridge LLC to replace the bridge which was deemed structurally deficient.
Crews plan to close the bridge to all traffic on Monday and have the new bridge in place with traffic restored by mid-December. Drivers must use an alternate route during the closure.
MoDOT says this closure is in addition to the road closure on Route Z, just south of Route C, due to a roadway slide.
