PLATTE COUNTY – The Missouri Department of Transportation will narrow northbound and southbound lanes of 69 Highway (NE Vivion Rd.) between NW Waukomis Dr. and N. Mulberry Dr. to 10’ width beginning Thursday, November 15 and continuing through Wednesday, January 30, 2019 for drainage improvement work. Also note: Frontier Rd. will be closed to through traffic during this improvement project. 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.
