Weather permitting, work was supposed to begin Monday under the route-50 and McCarty Street overpasses with some single-lane closures possible in the area.

Modot will also begin work on the 15^th along a half-mile stretch of 54 from just south of the Missouri River bridges to Business-50 with traffic being restricted to one lane in each direction and the speed limit reduced to 35-miles-per-hour through the work zone.
