A portion of Route 41 in Cooper County will close next Wednesday, Apr. 29 for railroad maintenance.

The Missouri Department of Transportation says that Union Pacific will complete maintenance work on their crossing at Route 41 just north of the Lamine River that day. The roadway will close from 8 a.m. until 4 p.m., from the river to Route CC. Motorists will need to seek an alternate route. All work is weather permitting, and schedules are subject to change.
