ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – Crews from the Missouri Department of Transportation plan to make improvements to two signals in St. Joseph next week. Motorists should not notice major changes at either intersection, but the new signal head and updates will improve the safety of both intersections and allow traffic to get through them more smoothly.
On Tuesday, July 7, at approximately 9 a.m., crews will close the southbound turn lane at Route 752 and King Hill Avenue to change the signal head. The signals will be flashing during the work, which is anticipated to last approximately one hour. Motorists should treat the intersection like a four-way stop during this time.
On Thursday, July 9, from approximately 9 to 11 a.m., crews will update the signals at U.S. Route 36 and Interstate 229. No lanes will be closed, but the signals may be dark or flashing during the work. Law enforcement officers will direct traffic through the intersection while the updates are being made.
