The Missouri Department of Transportation has issued a news release in reference to the electronic message boards at both ends of Highway 41 indicating that the highway will be closed on Monday, September 9, 2019.
According to the release, Highway 41 from Highway 24 to Miami will not close next week.
H.B. Construction, Inc, working with the Missouri Department of Transportation, is currently under contract to complete road repairs in order reopen the road to two-lane traffic, but a project timeline has not been determined at this time. A closure of Route 41 would not and had not been scheduled, to occur while U.S. Highway 65 south of Carrollton remains closed due to flooding.
Due to a technical error, electronic message boards positioned by the contractor were inadvertently turned on displaying incorrect information regarding a closure of Highway 41 and the roadway continues to remain open to one lane, controlled by traffic signals.
