From Warren County Record: Just shy of $11 million is being awarded to three companies to do road construction on eight state highways in Warren County in 2023.
The Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission (the governing board of the Missouri Department of Transportation) announced the project awards on Nov. 3. The projects were previously identified as part of MoDOT’s five-year transportation improvement plan.
The most substantial project is resurfacing and pavement improvements all along Highway 47, from Hawk Point to Interstate 70 in Warrenton, and then from Main Street in Warrenton all the way to the Missouri River bridge at Washington. Magruder Paving out of Troy was awarded the project at a cost of $7.5 million.
Pace Construction Company, a St. Louis-regional contractor, was awarded a $2.5 million contract for pavement improvements on three lettered highways near Warrenton, Marthasville and Foristell. The projects will include:
• Highway B (from I-70 to Highway 94)
• Highway O (from Highway M to Highway 94)
• Highway OO (from Highway M to Highway T)
Lastly, a contract for less intensive seal coat projects was awarded to Missouri Petroleum Products Company for about $974,000. That work will be done on four lettered highways:
• Highway U (from Warrenton’s Main Street to Highway 94)
• Highway H (from Wright City to Highway M)
• Highway AA (from I-70 North Outer Road to Hickory Lick Road)
• Highway Y (from Highway 19 in Montgomery County, through Warren County, to Jonesburg)
