The Missouri Department of Transportation says an intersection improvement project is set to begin just south of St. Joseph.
MoDOT, working with Hoy Excavating, LLC, will start work Monday, March second at U.S. Route 169 and Riverside Terrace.
Officials say the project will shift Route 169 slightly north from Summerhill Drive to just east of Southeast Riverside Terrace and realign both entrances to improve sight distance.
Route 169 will be closed between Route AC and Southeast 70th Street during the project.
