The Missouri Department of Transportation is scheduled to close lanes on two highways in Lafayette County on Thursday, September 1.

MoDOT is scheduled to close the right lane of eastbound Interstate 70 at Highway 23 in Concordia from 7 to 11 a.m. Thursday. Crews will repair the guardrail during this closure. MoDOT is also scheduled to close the northbound lane of Highway 13, south of Interstate 70 and north of Hazel Dell Road in Lafayette county from 10:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursday.

All work is weather dependent.

Motorists are reminded to slow down and pay attention while driving in work zones. Not all work zones look alike. Work zones can be moving operations, such as striping, patching or mowing. They can also be short term, temporary lane closures to make quick repairs or remove debris from the roadway.
