The mound of dirt is where the West-Florissant-I-270 bridge had been, until taken down in mid-April. West-bound traffic on I-270 continues through a detour that takes motorists to Dunn Road. West Florissant is still closed at the bridge and won’t be back for traffic until August, a 3-month shutdown.                                                      Bob Lindsey photo
