Both of the ramps at Jefferson (from EB I-64 to Jefferson and from Jefferson to WB I-64) are open. The ramp from Westbound I-64 to 22nd Street should open before the end of this year. The ramp from Jefferson to EB I-64 (at 22nd Street) should be open around fall 2022. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications.
We have had some scheduling delays with this project. You should see crews back out there starting Monday. Andrew Gates, MoDOT Communications
This section of roadway is certainly on our radar. Unfortunately, we currently lack the funds to finance the needed improvement project. We will continue to pursue federal funds for the job. David Wrone, St. Louis County's Department of Transportation
We will have our traffic engineer monitor the signal during construction hours. Thanks, Betherny Williams, St. Louis City Streets
I've been informed that this project belongs to the City of Maryland Heights. David Wrone, St. Louis County's Department of Transportation
Technically, interstates have a minimum speed -- typically 40 miles per hour. Since a cyclist typically can't travel at that speed, they are discouraged from traveling on interstates for safety. However, in this situation, there are very few other reasonable river crossings for cyclists -- I believe the nearest one would be across the Eads, which is well out of the way. You don't say if they were using the shoulder, or if they had taken a lane on the interstate. If the cyclist was traveling safely, and wasn't impeding traffic, reporting it using *55, as it wasn't an emergency, probably wouldn't have been the best use of a law enforcement partner's time.
