Saline Creek Bridge, Route 17, Miller County

Online Public Hearing, July 12-19, 2011

The Missouri Department of Transportation proposes to replace the historic Saline Creek bridge on Route 17 in Miller County. The current structure was built in 1925 and is located about three miles north of the Route 17 and Route 52 intersection. The potential new bridge would be constructed in the same location and would be eight feet wider than the current structure.

Please see the documents below for more information about the bridge replacement. An opportunity to comment on the project can be found at the bottom of this page.
