Over 300 Southeast Students Prepare to Compete at MoDOT’s Sixth Annual Bridge Competition
SIKESTON - MoDOT is sponsoring its sixth annual bridge building competition for high school juniors and seniors in the Southeast District. The competition is pretty clear-cut: participating students must design and construct the most efficient model bridge, using limited materials-the lightest bridge to carry the greatest load, will ultimately be declared the winner. All the bridges will be tested at the competition on Thursday, Nov. 12 at Cape West 14 Cine in Cape Girardeau.
On Aug. 21, the MoDOT team mailed-out competition posters, registration forms, and other contest information to all high schools in its 14-county Southeast District. And since then, MoDOT has already had a great response from area schools-26 schools have signed-up, with over 300 students participating.
