The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is preparing for improvements to begin next year on one of Ozark County’s main highways. MoDOT will hold an open house public hearing Aug. 6 from 4 until 7 in the cafeteria of the Gainesville R-V School District.
The proposed project includes widening nearly one mile of U.S. Highway 160, realigning two curves and adding paved shoulders at Tecumseh. The project also includes the addition of a guardrail on the south side of Highway 160.
The project is expected to be let in May, with construction beginning as early as next summer. Temporary widening will be completed to allow two-way traffic as construction gets underway. Completion is anticipated for next fall.
