Thank you for the kudos. We are always looking to improve the operation and safety of our roadways for all users, and the department is often on the cutting edge of innovation. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
Yes, we do plan to resurface Jefferson under I-44 on our right of way when the bridge work is completed. I have asked our construction team to check on the potholes you mention to see if they can be patched in the meantime. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
It depends on the roadway, and who maintains that roadway. For issues on interstates or state numbered or lettered routes (Lindbergh is a state-maintained roadway), you can call our customer service team 24/7 at 314-275-1500 (or 1-888-275-6636). If you can give me some more details (primarily what time you tend to go through this signal and experience this issue), I can pass it along to our traffic team to investigate.

They have finished the resurfacing and they are currently working on the medians. They anticipate that it will probably be another month before all the work is complete. Riverview is, according to our construction team, open to traffic. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
Yes, there will be a dual turn lane from southbound Jefferson; however, you will have to merge into one lane before getting onto the interstate. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
What time are you seeing this (and which direction are you traveling) ? Many times, signal timing and synchronization is based on where the heaviest traffic is. The direction with the heaviest traffic gets the most signal time, which often means that the traffic heading the other direction may have to stop more consistently. If you can provide the time and direction, I can share it with our traffic team to see if they have any insight. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
Thanks -- I have passed that along to our traffic experts for that area. When I hear anything back from them, I'll share it. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
My guess is that they are trying to get around the congestion on the westbound interstate by jumping off and getting back on the interstate just after the interchange. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
Thanks for sharing your observations. I have passed them along to our construction team overseeing that project for their consideration. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
