Delayed: Interstate 35 in Daviess County under Route 6 bridge to close overnigh…

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. - The closure of Interstate 35 under the Route 6 bridge has been delayed from Wednesday Sept. 3 to Monday Sept. 8 due to contractor schedule changes. The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted Capital Paving & Construction, LLC to complete a bridge deck replacement project on the Daviess County Missouri Route 6 bridge over I-35 near Altamont. I-35 under the Route 6 bridge will be closed overnight in both directions while the contractor removes the bridge forms.

Traffic Impacts: I-35 under the Route 6 bridge will be closed overnight in both directions beginning at 7 p.m. on Sept. 8 and reopen by 6 a.m. on Sept. 9. During the closure, I-35 traffic will be directed up and over the ramps at Route 6 (Exit 64). There will be no access to/from Route 6 during the closure. Motorists on Route 6 will need to use U.S. Route 69 (Exit 69 to the north and Exit 61 to the south).

The Route 6 bridge expected to reopen in mid-September 2025.
