Contractor Chosen to Repair Missouri Route 109
This week's foundation failure of a section of the major thoroughfare will cost $818,305 for emergency repairs.
Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) officials this afternoon awarded an emergency contract to repair a section of Missouri Route 109 between Turkey Track and Christy Road to the St. Louis office of Krupp Construction for $818,305.
MoDOT officials indicate Krupp crews plan to put up detour and closure signs this weekend, and should start excavation work on Monday.
Crews from the contractor were authorized to work around-the-clock to make repairs to the roadway, said MoDOT spokesman Andrew Gates. "The roadway must be complete and open to traffic by April 1," he said.
Twelve contractors bid for the emergency repair contract.
