MoDOT TRAFFIC ALERT: New Weight Restriction Placed on Missouri Route 38 Bridge over Cantrell Creek
Webster/Wright County - Signs indicating a weight limit of 20 tons for single-unit vehicles and 40 tons for combination vehicles will be installed on the Missouri Route 38 bridge over Cantrell Creek near the Webster/Wright County Line, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
The new load posting was introduced during the department's regular bridge inspection process, which analyzes load limitations and has been updated in accordance with Federal Highway Administration guidance.
The bridge was built in 1935 and is in poor condition. The new weight limit will be in place until the bridge is replaced. At this time, no timeframe has been set for replacing the bridge.
Previously, there was no posted load limit on this bridge.
