Patterson Road Work Begins; Construction Completion in June

Construction began on  Tuesday Feb. 19 on Saint Louis County’s Patterson Road Right Turn Lane project.  This St. Louis County Department of Highways & Traffic project, funded by Federal and County funds, will add a right turn lane to the west side of Patterson Road from Sally Drive to the existing McDonald’s entrance north of N. Highway 67 (Lindbergh Blvd).

The new turn lane should help ease congestion at this busy intersection.  The improvements will also include the installation of storm sewers, concrete sidewalk and ADA-compliant sidewalk ramps.  Traffic signal work is also planned which includes installation of conduit and fiber optic cable along Patterson Road from N. Highway 67 to New Halls Ferry Road and along N. Highway 67 from St. Ferdinand Street to Patterson Road.  The project is anticipated to be completed by the end of June 2013.

The construction work has been awarded to Gershenson Construction Co. and will generally take place on weekdays between 7 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. Lane restrictions will be in place at various times and locations.  Be sure to plan ahead to allow yourself sufficient time to reach your destination and consider using an alternative route, if possible.

Questions and concerns may be directed to Saint Louis County’s Resident Engineer for the project, Mr. Gerry Schulz who may be reached at 314-703-1454.
