Friday, February 24, 2012

The Missouri Department of Transportation has announced that Highway Y, between Vernon County Highway AA, near Harwood, and St. Clair County Route H near Taberville, will be closed to all traffic during the hours of 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.m Monday-Friday, Feb. 27 through March 2. The road will be open to traffic at night.

Crews will be replacing deteriorating drain pipes underneath the road. Drivers will be able to reach driveways and other roads. However, they will not be able to travel through the work zone where crews are set up.

Drivers are urged to find alternate routes during the work. Work could be postponed due to weather or construction delays.
