SUMMARY: Drivers in Missouri are preparing for significant slowdowns on I-70 as construction season approaches. During Work Zone Awareness Week, MODOT urges safe driving as numerous work zones will emerge, following 23 fatalities in work zone crashes last year. Upcoming construction includes adding a third lane along eastbound I-70, resulting in night lane closures from 8 PM to 6 AM, expected to last until September.
