The Missouri Department of Transportation is seeking public input regarding a proposed project to replace the Route 114 bridge over Dexter Creek in Dexter, Missouri. Although the bridge is safe for travel, this 90-year-old structure is considered to be in poor condition. The bridge is in need of replacement, and the project is currently in the design phase.

The project will require acquisition of approximately 0.06 acres of new right-of-way from the northwest corner of the parcel associated with Dexter’s East Park, in an area that does not contain any recreational features or uses. 

This project is currently scheduled to go out for contractor bids as part of MoDOT’s December 2026 letting with construction expected during the 2027 construction season. The road and bridge at the existing bridge location on Route 114 will be closed for approximately 70 days during construction. Local roads available for a short, 1-mile detour include Route 25, Stoddard Street and Clements Street in Dexter, Missouri. Using state routes, the detour would total approximately 13.5 miles and includes Route 25, U.S. 60, Route FF and Route 114.

Individuals and organizations wishing to comment on the project may do so by Wednesday, July 24 the following ways:
