Districts Impacted
Project Summary
The Southwest District’s Kaysinger Basin Bridge Bundle will replace or rehabilitate up to 20 poor condition bridges in west central Missouri and bring them up to current standards. The majority of these bridges are on two-lane rural routes. These bridges connect and serve the communities and citizens of rural west central Missouri in Bates, Benton, Cedar, Henry, Hickory, St. Clair, and Vernon. On average, these bridges have been in place for 70 years.
Project Goals:
- Safely deliver the project within the programmed budget of $38 million.
- Maximize the number of locations to be addressed while providing quality, low maintenance structures and roadway approaches.
- Minimize impacts to the public through diligent construction efforts, flexibility in scheduling, and proactive communication.
- Deliver the project utilizing a diverse work force.
- Complete the project on or before November 15, 2027

Frequently Asked Questions:
How will you maintain traffic and access to my property or business during construction?
Bridges are expected to be closed while they are under construction, however access to adjacent properties will be maintained throughout that time. Some bridges in this project may be near other improvements on state-maintained highways. Should the need arise, the contractors will coordinate to minimize traffic conflicts and restrictions to properties.
Will construction interfere with emergency vehicle access?
Emergency vehicles will have access to all adjacent properties while each bridge location is under construction. Since the bridges will be closed and inaccessible while work is performed, the contractor will notify and coordinate with emergency services during the construction period.
Will traffic be detoured during construction of the project?
All bridges are expected to be closed while under construction. Of the 20 total bridges in the project, nine (9) have high enough traffic volumes to require signed detours.
When will construction begin?
Construction is anticipated to start in the summer of 2025. All construction activity is expected to be completed by November 15, 2027.
How long will construction last at each bridge?
Now that the construction project has been awarded, a determination will be made on the amount of work to be done at each bridge. This will also determine the length of closure at each bridge. Once those determinations are made, the project’s web page will be updated. Currently, the project is anticipated to begin late spring or early summer 2025 and completed by November 2027.
