Route Y Section to Close for the Summer

MoDOT contractors will replace an outdated culvert in the coming months and expect to reopen the road in August.

The Missouri Department of Transportation will temporarily close a section of Route Y, located south of Route C and near Grandview School in Desoto, on Wednesday.

Crews will replace the box culvert because it is in poor condition, MoDOT said in a news release.

MoDOT planned the closure after the school year to lower the effect on buses schedules and motorists.
