Missouri Route 97 CLOSED in Lawrence Co. Beginning Week of June 12 for Bridge & Culvert Replacement
Missouri Route 97 will be CLOSED beginning the week of June 12 for replacement of the Spring River bridge and a box culvert over Spring Creek north of Stotts City, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
The contractor will close one bridge at a time. Work will begin on the Spring River bridge the week of June 12. Upon completion of that bridge in late fall 2023, the contractor will reopen all lanes of Route 97. Crews will return in March 2024 to replace the Spring Creek culvert.
The current Spring River bridge was built in 1947 and the Spring Creek culvert was built in 1900. Both are in deteriorating condition. Approximately 1,300 vehicles cross the bridges daily.
