HANNIBAL - Seal coat and resurfacing operations will continue on various routes in Lincoln and Pike counties. Weather permitting, as early as the week of June 1, seal coat operations will begin on Route U, from Missouri Route 47 near Hawk Point to just west of U.S. Route 61 near Moscow Mills. Once complete, work will proceed in the following order:
Traffic will be reduced to one lane with a 10-foot width restriction in place at the location where crews are actively working. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct motorists through the work zone. Signs and message boards will be in place to alert motorists as schedule changes occur. All work is weather-dependent, and schedules are subject to change.
The $3.1 million contract was awarded to Magruder Paving, LLC of Troy, and includes the following resurfacing projects in Lincoln County that have already been completed. All work is scheduled to be complete by November 2026.
