HANNIBAL - Weather permitting, as early as March 9, contractor crews with N.B. West Contracting Company will begin pavement repairs at various locations along westbound Interstate 70 in Callaway and Montgomery counties. Work will take place at the following locations:

• Mile Marker 153.2 - westbound I-70 traffic lanes and right shoulder, between Route JJ and Auxvasse Creek, near Calwood (Callaway County)
• Mile Marker 165.6 - westbound I-70 driving lane, near Route N, approximately 4.5 miles west of Exit 170 MO 161/Route J Danville/Montgomery City (Montgomery County)

All work will occur during nighttime hours between 7:30 p.m. and 4:30 a.m. Motorists can expect possible delays as traffic will be reduced to one lane with a 12-foot width restriction in place where workers are present.

All work is weather dependent, and schedules are subject to change. For the safety of the crews and the traveling public, we would like to remind drivers to be attentive in work zones and put down your cell phones to eliminate distractions.
