WILLOW SPRINGS – Contractor crews will soon begin work to improve U.S. Route 160 in Howell and Oregon Counties. The project includes replacing culverts, adding a southbound turn lane at the Route BB intersection, adding shoulders and rumble strips from U.S. Route 63 in West Plains, Missouri to Missouri Route 99. Motorists should anticipate a lane reduction with a 10-foot width restriction.
Weather permitting, work will be underway Monday, Oct. 9 through Tuesday, Oct. 1, 2024, from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., including weekends as necessary.
As construction is underway, flaggers will be present, and traffic will be guided through the work zone by a pilot car.
The work zone will be marked with signs. Motorists are urged to use extreme caution while traveling near the area.
