Recent Ribbon Cuttings:

Drivers on Route 94 in St. Charles County now have easier access to Route 364 when the Missouri Department of Transportation and its contractor, Fred Weber Inc., opened the first section of Phase 2 of the Route 364 project at Harvester Road after a ribbon cutting ceremony.

The public was invited to help MoDOT celebrate the completion at the ceremony Tuesday, July 27 on the eastbound lanes of new Route 364 near the new Harvester Road overpass.

This roadwork will eliminate the need for Route 94 traffic to stop at a traffic signal on Harvester Road. This should speed up the flow of traffic on Route 94/364 significantly during morning and evening rush periods.

This is the first section of Route 364, Phase II to be completed. This $19.7 million project constructed an additional mile of Route 364, from west of Jung Station Road, and to just east of Woodstone Drive. Crews also constructed a new bridge to take Harvester Road over Route 364 and built one-way outer roads.

The Missouri Department of Transportation and the City of Washington invited the public on Saturday, July 10 to celebrate the opening of the new lanes on Route 100 between Interstate 44 and Route 47 in Washington. A walk/bike event was held at 8 a.m., (rain or shine), and a ribbon cutting ceremony at 10:30 a.m., near St. John’s Road (rain or shine). Prior to the ceremony, the Washington Brass Band played music near the ribbon cutting.

The new lanes on Route 100 will opened on Thursday, July 15. Crews may still be present along the highway for two weeks following the opening to put the finishing touches on Route 100.

The Route 100 Widening Project is a cost-share partnership between MoDOT and the City of Washington. The last construction contract was awarded to Millstone Bangert for approximately $21.1 million. This project consists of two additional lanes on Route 100 from Interstate 44 to Route 47. The widening of Route 100 will improve the capacity and safety of the highway for Franklin County motorists.

Route 100 from Interstate 44 to Route 47 had exceeded its capacity for a two-lane roadway and could no longer handle the amount of traffic that uses it on a daily basis. MoDOT identified traffic congestion and safety as the major transportation issues of concern. In 1972, Route 100 between Interstate 44 and Route 47 was rebuilt to provide a straighter alignment and improve visibility at intersections. In 2003, the roadway was resurfaced. The current average daily traffic count is 16,000 vehicles per day. By 2020, that volume is expected to nearly double to 30,000 vehicles per day.
