Holt County U.S. Route 59 Narrowed For Pavement Repair
The Missouri Department of Transportation says a pavement blow-up in Holt County will narrow a major roadway in the county for repairs. Holt County U.S. Route 59 at the bridge over Interstate 29, north of Craig, is narrowed to one lane for pavement repairs due to a pavement blow-up. A pavement blow-up occurs when the roadway surface expands at a crack or joint where moisture has seeped in. The crack weakens the pavement, and the heat causes the pavement to buckle and warp.
