ST. LOUIS - People who use Interstate 44 between Route 109 in Eureka and Route 141 in Valley Park may want to attend an upcoming open house style public meeting to learn about a 2027 project for the corridor.

The open house style public meeting is Tuesday, May 12, from 4-6 p.m. 4 - 6 p.m. on the second floor of The Timbers of Eureka Recreation Center, 1 Coffey Park Ln, Eureka, Missouri, 63025.

The meeting will allow those interested to learn about plans for a 2027 project to make repairs along the corridor and share their thoughts about the project. Work includes:

• Pavement repairs where needed and roadway resurfacing along I-44 between Eureka and Valley Park.
• Repairing several bridges on I-44.
• Replacing the I-44 bridges at Williams Creek and improving culverts in the area.
• Rebuilding the interstate median barrier.
• Adding safety improvements at Antire Hill.

This meeting will allow the public to share insights, discuss concerns and provide comments, either directly to the engineers or through a survey.

During the meeting, MoDOT engineers will share their plans for the corridor and will gather feedback to help complete the design and construction of the project in 2027.

There will be no formal presentation. Participants may attend the meeting at any time May 12 between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m.
