I-49 lane closures in Nevada for pavement upgrades
NEVADA, Mo. — Here’s a heads-up for drivers in Nevada. Beginning today MoDOT crews will be working on I-49 pavement improvements in Nevada.
Starting at 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. July 20 through July 26.
Lanes running north and southbound of I-49 between Highland Avenue and the bridges over the railroad in Nevada will be closed.
Crews will be adding a high-friction pavement treatment in multiple areas to try and help improve traction on curves.
Various selected routes in McDonald, Stone, Taney, and Vernon counties are also a part of the project.
Drivers are urged to stay alert of signs and messages, as MoDOT crews will be directing traffic through flagger vehicles.
It’s also encouraged to find alternative routes in the meantime.
