(KTRS) – Area around Grand and Interstate 44 will be a bit chaotic for the next two weeks.

Monday, MoDOT closed the ramp from Grand to eastbound I-44. Crews will be laying new asphalt to connect the ramp to the new Grand bridge. Drivers will not be able to get onto eastbound 44 from Grand for the next two weeks. MoDOT is encouraging trucks and buses to avoid the area all together.
