The Missouri Department of Transportation is planning a major construction project to improve Interstate 229 in St. Joseph. The project is led by Joyce Reynolds, who is questioning the need for a double-decker bridge and exploring alternative options. MoDOT is working with the Federal Highway Administration to redesignate I-229 and come up with a new name for the corridor. Construction is expected to begin in 2028, and the entire process will take several years to complete.
