LAFAYETTE COUNTY - Crews will be closing the ramp from Old Highway 40 to Interstate 70 eastbound in Bates City as well as conducting a flagging operation on Old Hwy 40 just east of Lafayette County Route D on Thursday, Aug. 28, from approximately 7 a.m. until 3 p.m., for pavement repair work. All work is weather permitting.
