Outer Road 63 in Boone County to narrow next week

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - The west outer road for U.S. Route 63 between Columbia and Ashland is set to narrow to one lane next week.

From 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 12, construction crews from Capital Paving and Construction plan to apply a surface treatment to a portion of Missouri Route 163 and Tom Bass Road between Boone County Route H and Meyer Industrial Drive as a final step in the resurfacing of those routes done earlier this year. One lane will remain open with flaggers and pilot vehicles directing motorists through the work zones.

All work is weather permitting, and schedules are subject to change.

Motorists should exercise caution, eliminate distractions, and slow down through the single-lane work zones.

MoDOT asks all motorists to work with us by buckling up, putting your phone down, obeying all traffic signs, and slowing down and moving over in work zones.
