Welcome to Night 4 of our Legislative Focus Week on Infrastructure in Missouri. Tonight’s topic will cover reinvesting in our roads and bridges.

This is a crucial issue in my opinion for our state, and one that has been hard to solve over the years. Please join in the convo!

To start, here’s an article that highlights the needs and attempts to rebuild and improve our roads and highways. It’s time we finally come together to find the best solutions for our roads. showmeinstitute.org/blog/transport…

At the moment, we have two bridge projects in KCMO, the Buck O’Neil Bridge and the I-435 Bridge over the Missouri River.

These projects are great, but there are many more bridges that need repair and improvements across our state.

Why do we need to finally figure out a permanent solution for our roads? Look no further than this article.

It’s time to focus on solutions, permanent ones at that, to invest in our roads and bridges for the long-term. I look forward to being a part of that solution in Jefferson City.
