Champ Clark Bridge to Close Tuesday Morning

(LOUISIANA)--    The Champ Clark Bridge at Louisiana will close to all traffic for two hours Tuesday.
Crews will put a new seal on the deck of the 84-year-old structure, which carries Highway 54 between Missouri and Illinois. The closing is expected to last from 9 to 11 a.m.

Signs will be in place to re-route traffic. State officials say the closure is needed because the bridge’s deck is only 20 feet wide.

The work originally was to be done September 25th, but was postponed due to rain.
