A cost-share partnership was established between the City of Lee’s Summit and MoDOT in 2004 to implement design and construction of improvements for the I-470/US 50/MO 350 Interchange.

This initiative encompasses two projects to improve Route 13 south of Lexington and around Warrensburg.

The interstate connections project will upgrade Interstate 29/35 to six lanes from just north of the Route 210/ Armour Road interchange to Independence Avenue.

MoDOT plans to widen an 8-mile section of Missouri Route 150 from Route 71 to Route 291 from the existing two lanes to four lanes.

Safe & Sound is a multi-faceted program that will improve more than 800 of Missouri’s worst bridges.

MoDOT completed a Location Study Report identifying a need to improve the Route 45 corridor in Platte County.

The conventional diamond interchange at I-435 and Front Street has been redesigned and will be reconstructed as a Diverging Diamond Interchange.

The I-435 and I-70 interchange will be improved to reduce bottlenecks and improve both capacity and access.

Projects along 71 include Route 71 Interchange at Route 150, Route 71 at 163rd Street and Route 71 at North Cass Parkway.
