Sidewalk repairs impact SB U.S. 61 in Perry County

Southbound U.S. 61 in Perry County — from Lucy Street to Ash Street in Perryville — will be impacted as contractor crews replace various portions of the sidewalk. According to a Missouri Department of Transportation news release, the work will take place daily from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday, July 29, through Friday, Aug. 9. The release said traffic will shift to utilize the center turn lane when available. Wide loads won't be impacted as crews will make temporary accommodations. Motorists should anticipate crews working in close proximity to traffic, the release said.

All work is weather permitting. Work zones will be marked with signs. Motorists are urged to use caution while traveling near those areas. For more information about these projects, contact MoDOT’s Customer Service Center at (888) 275-6636 or visit www.modot.org/southeast.
