A resurfacing project is scheduled to begin next week on Chariton County Route 5 followed by Route 129.
The Missouri Department of Transportation has contracted with Capital Paving and Construction to resurface 19.506 miles of Route 5 from the southern Marceline city limits to U.S. Route 24. Crews will be widening shoulders and placing new asphalt surface through the area.
Work on Route 5 is expected to begin Thursday, May 2, and continue through the end of June. Crews plan to begin resurfacing 7.24 miles of Route 129 from Route W to Route PP near Salisbury on June 13 and continue through the end of July.
Motorists who regularly travel this area should be alert and watch for roadway signs and workers. A pilot car will be used to guide vehicles through the work zone. Crews will work during daylight hours, five days per week. Some work may occur on the weekends, if necessary to complete the project on schedule.
All work is weather permitting and could be rescheduled.
