The Missouri Department of Transportation announced Monday that the Bates Street exit ramp from southbound Interstate 55 will be closed for an indefinite period.

Drivers who use Interstates 44 and 55 downtown will need to find alternate routes or expect significant delays this weekend.

Most lanes of I-44/I-55 between the Poplar Street Bridge and Seventh Street/Park Avenue will close at 11 p.m. Friday but MoDOT will keep one southbound lane open until 1:30 a.m.

Major bridge improvements are underway in Holly Hills in south St. Louis; not closing roads, but walkways. If you use the trail through the Carondelet Connector, you’ll be greeted by a big ‘trail closed’ sign, something that will be there for quite some time.
