Planned Road Work in the 33rd District
Recently, the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) released its 2017-2021 Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan (STIP). It is no secret that many of the rural highways and bridges in the 33rd District, and across the entire state, are in need of repair, replacement and maintenance.
