The Route W ramp to westbound U.S. 54 closes Monday, so you'll detour via U.S. 63
The Daily Jefferson City team
If you drive through North Jefferson City, plan another route. Central Mo Info reports that Missouri Department of Transportation crews will close the Route W ramp to westbound U.S. 54 beginning Monday. It's part of the project expanding the highway.
3 weekswith no access to or from Airport Road and westbound U.S. 54
The ramp from westbound U.S. 54 to Airport Road is already closed, so both are shut at once.

- Detour: eastbound U.S. 54 to the U.S. 63 interchange
- Why: new pavement for the U.S. 63/U.S. 54 lane onto the bridge
- Weather: work is weather permitting and schedules can change
KOMU 8 reports that Route W is also known as Airport Road, and that the westbound exit ramp to Cedar City Drive closed in September. A dedicated southbound lane on U.S. 63 onto the Missouri River bridge will open at this time. Heading that way? We suggest leaving a few extra minutes.
