Jasper County - Both northbound ramps at the Route 171/Route HH interchange near Carterville will CLOSE permanently the week of May 12, the Missouri Department of Transportation said.
The ramp closings are needed to allow contractor crews to move the fill dirt under the current ramps across the highway to the location of the new ramps.
Drivers will need to find alternate routes to get around the ramp closings.
