Traffic may move a little slowly on a stretch of Route 54 next week. MoDot will be taking pavement samples from the westbound driving lane, requiring them to reduce traffic to one lane. Motorists are asked to slow down and use caution as you drive through the work zone, which will run from Route 52 in Miller County to Route V. That stretch of the road serves as a test area for different types of asphalt pavement and MoDot needs to take some samples to measure their performance. The work is scheduled for Monday through Thursday (April 23-26th) from 6am until 4:30pm.
