MODOT Construction Update

MODOT representatives attended The Loop CID Board meeting today to give us an update on their construction schedule and explain the extent of the proposed street closures.
On Monday, April 25, work begins on the West Blvd. intersection where the north roundabout will be relocated and a second roundabout placed to the south. On Monday the westbound offramp will be closed for 10 days. On Tuesday, the north roundabout will be open but Creasy Springs access from the roundabout will be closed for 15 days.
On Monday, June 13, work begins on the south side of the West Blvd. intersection. Work during this phase will include the following:

• Demolition of the existing Business Loop bridge.
• Construction of a new Business Loop alignment east of the existing alignment.
• Sliding the new I-70 Bridge into place.
• Construction of new Roundabout on the south side of I-70.

This is expected to last 45 days. All businesses in the area will be accessible but we recommend anyone on I-70 visiting the Business Loop instead exit the highway at Providence.


All work on the Bridge Replacement Project is scheduled to be completed by October 1.
