So, why is only the bike [sic] trail closed and all lanes of traffic?

The bike path will be open on the weekends. The work is under way right now and the path is closed. MoDOT felt that it would be best to do this work during the winter when temperatures are typically colder and fewer riders were utilizing the path. Barricades and signs have been posted on the bike path notifying riders that it is closed. This work is not associated with any problems with the bridge. The bridge was supposed to be designed with certain features to accommodate future maintenance on the bridge bearings. MoDOT is correcting the issue now so that it will not have to be addressed in 25-30 years.

For more information, please contact MoDOT's Customer Service Center at 314-340-4100.
