MoDOT to shift westbound Interstate 70 lanes at David Hoekel Parkway starting June 24

Posted

Crews with the Improve I-70 Warrenton to Wentzville Project will shift traffic in the westbound direction of Interstate 70 at David Hoekel Parkway (mile marker 206) for pavement construction starting Wednesday, June 24. All work is weather permitting.

Westbound lanes will be shifted to the left and then into a split configuration for a short duration at David Hoekel Parkway. The westbound I-70 exit ramp to David Hoekel Parkway remains open but traffic taking that exit needs to use the right lane. This lane shift is expected to remain in place throughout mid-July.

Two lanes of traffic will remain open on westbound I-70 during peak travel times; however, nightly lane closures will occur between 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. to support the pavement construction.

Motorists are encouraged to pay attention in work zones, drive the posted work zone speed limit, and allow extra time for travel. All work is weather-dependent, and schedules are subject to change.

This work is part of the second project in MoDOT’s Statewide Improve I-70 Program. Improve I-70: Warrenton to Wentzville is a $600 million Design-Build project that will improve the 20-mile stretch of I-70 between Warrenton and Wentzville. The project was awarded to the Improve 70 Alliance team in November 2024. Construction is anticipated to be complete by the end of 2028.
