MoDOT lane closures on Route 1 to begin; Gladstone city manager warns motorists of delays
Summary
City Manager Bob Bear told the council that the Missouri Department of Transportation will start lane closures on Route 1 between 70 Second Street and Brooktree Lane tomorrow for full-depth reconstruction, shifting traffic to one lane each direction through late September.
City Manager Bob Bear told the Gladstone City Council on July 14 that the Missouri Department of Transportation will begin lane closures on Route 1 between 70 Second Street and Brooktree Lane starting tomorrow for a full-depth reconstruction project. "Traffic will shift to 1 lane in each direction through late September," Bear said, and he asked motorists to "please be patient and expect some delays if you're traveling that way."
Bear said the work is "to improve and rebuild entirely full depth reconstruction of that roadway." He did not specify funding amounts or an exact construction schedule beyond the expected lane-shift period through late September. The council did not take formal action on the MoDOT work; the announcement was provided as part of the city manager's report to inform residents and council about the upcoming closures and expected delays.
Bear's remarks were presented as operational information to the council; the transcript does not show city-initiated lane closures or city-funded construction on Route 1. Residents and motorists should plan for delays and alternate routes while MoDOT conducts the reconstruction.
