LATEST NEWS
The Mississippi River Bridge team is holding two public hearings on July 7 and 8 from 4 to 6 p.m. to discuss IDOT's and MoDOT's plan to establish a dual Disadvantaged Business Enterprise goal for the project.  For more details and locations, click here.

The Mississippi River Bridge Team held a public meeting to discuss the replacement of the St. Louis and Madison Avenue bridges over I-70.  This contract was awarded on June 3 -- details are available here. Work on the project will not start until later this year. For details of what was discussed in the public meeting, please go here.

Illinois has developed an overhead map of the projects on the Illinois side, with the anticipated years when that portion of the project is expected to go out for bids.  Missouri also has a similar map for projects on the Missouri side (as well as the bridge).  View Illinois' map here, and Missouri's information here.
