Construction on two bridges in the Lake of the Ozarks area will impact traffic in the coming months.
Work is scheduled to begin next week, as a contractor working for the Missouri Department of Transportation will begin installing guardrails and replacing the deck of the Miller County Route C bridge over Deane Creek, south of Brumley.
The bridge will be closed to traffic for up to three months while the work takes place, starting June 1, according to a MoDOT news release.
Motorists will be able to use Camden County Route A, U.S. 54 and Missouri 42 as a detour route during the rehabilitation of the Deane Creek bridge.
Once the Deane Creek bridge has been rehabilitated, crews will begin to replace the deck of the Camden County Route D bridge over Minnow Brook Creek, southwest of Camdenton. More information will be available regarding this phase of the project closer to its start date.
Both bridges are included in Gov. Mike Parson's $351 million Focus on Bridges program, which will repair or replace 250 bridges across the state.

This work is weather permitting and could be delayed.
