ST. JOSEPH, Mo. – A few more routes are now closed due to flooding. With the possibility of rain in the forecast, floodwaters can rise rapidly. If you see water over the road, do not drive through it. It is impossible to tell how deep the water is or the condition of the roadway under the water.
The Missouri Department of Transportation provides a Traveler Information Map atwww.modot.org/northwest which lists all road closures and planned roadwork. Motorists are advised to check the map before heading out to plan alternate routes, as needed. MoDOT encourages everyone to pay attention to barricades and water over the road. Remember: Turn Around! Don’t Drown!
