As MoDOT engineers review safety plans along Highway 54 through Lake of the Ozarks, worried business owners are taking action of their own. They’re meeting with state reps Monday evening to talk about MoDOT road closures that have cut them off from their customers. The new expressway opened just about a year ago, but high accident rates forced MoDOT to rethink some traffic patterns. The meetings getting underway now at Molotoft Cocktails, 6396 Osage Beach Parkway – located right in the heart of the business district.
