Past Community Engagement

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) is improving aging infrastructure along Interstate 70 between The Paseo and U.S. 40.

For this section, MoDOT is conducting a re-evaluation of previously completed work from the second tier of the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). Because the final EIS document was completed several years ago and conditions may have changed, a National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) re-evaluation is necessary.

As a result of comments received in March 2022, the project team incorporated that feedback into the modified design to find ways to improve safety, reduce congestion, and reconnect the community. At the September 2022 public meeting feedback was requested on these new ideas, such as locations for potential pedestrian crossing across I-70, continuation of lanes, and combining access points between I-70 and local roads. 

The meeting in March 2025 provided an opportunity for the public to learn more about project updates and potential traffic impacts ahead of construction beginning in April 2025.
