Pipeline Causes Closures on I-35

MoDOT will be making repairs on a pipeline that will require the total closure of the left lane of southbound I-35 from approximately MO Route 291 to just north of MO Route 152. This closure will begin at 9 pm on Tuesday, May 31, until approximately Friday, June 10. The closure will remain in place 24 hours a day and is expected to cause delays to traffic in the area. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead or seek alternate routes. All work is weather permitting.

For potential impacts to traffic, please review KC Scout cameras at http://www.kcscout.net or consult our real-time traffic partner, WAZE.

Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
