Traffic Delays Expected on McDonald Co. Route J Starting Sept. 10

Motorists planning to travel on McDonald Co. Route J should prepare for traffic delays starting September 10. The road resurfacing project is set to reduce traffic to a single lane in areas where contractor crews will be laying asphalt. Flaggers and pilot cars will guide drivers through the work zones to ensure a safe and gradual flow of traffic.

These traffic adjustments are part of the ongoing efforts to improve road conditions in the region. Similar projects have been underway in McDonald and Newton counties since August, affecting various routes and causing lane closures and traffic delays. The roadwork aims to enhance safety and overall driving experiences for thousands of daily commuters.

Estimates suggest that the resurfacing project on Route J will continue for several weeks, with ongoing lane reductions and traffic delays. Motorists are advised to exercise caution and patience while traversing the affected areas, as slow-moving tractors and periodic changes in traffic patterns may occur. Detailed information on traffic alerts and road conditions can be obtained by dialing 511 or visiting the official website for traveler information.
