TRAFFIC ALERT: Route 90 bridge construction to cause detour in McDonald County
MCDONALD CO., Mo. — One McDonald County road is closing as part of a bridge construction project.
Starting Monday, Slinkard Road just off of Missouri Route 90, east of Jane will close to traffic so contractor crews can install pipe and base rock. MoDOT expects the road to be closed from Monday June 2 to Wednesday June 4.
While work is being done, drivers will be directed along a signed detour of McDonald County Route K, Business 71, County Route H and I-49.
Signs and message boards will also alert drivers approaching the work zone. The work is part of a 2.3 million dollar project to replace the current one-lane bridge over Little Sugar Creek on Route 90, with a new two-lane bridge, guardrails, barrier walls and permanent striping.
The project is estimated to be complete early December this year.

Loomer met with Vance, White House says she's not informally advising
Far-right activist Laura Loomer met Tuesday with Vice President Vance, the White House confirmed Tuesday, while saying she is not serving as an advisor to him. Press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Loomer met with Vance, but did not provide details on their conversation. Asked about Loomer's relationship with the administration and if she is 'informally advising in any way,' Leavitt said, 'she is not.' A spokesperson for Vance's office did not respond to a request for comment about the meeting with Loomer or its purpose. Loomer is a staunch Trump ally with a history of making incendiary comments. She has been repeatedly condemned for spreading anti-Muslim rhetoric and conspiracy theories about the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. She has also sparred at times with others in Trump's circle. While Trump and his allies have repeatedly sought to distance themselves from Loomer having any official role, she has been a recurring figure in the president's orbit. She has also shown signs of being an influence on decision-making in the White House. She was a visible presence for a brief stretch during the 2024 campaign, and she met earlier this year with Trump in the Oval Office to raise concerns about certain National Security Council staffers who were later fired. After that meeting, Trump described Loomer as a 'great patriot.' 'She makes recommendations on things and people, and sometimes I listen to those recommendations, like I do with everybody,' Trump told reporters in April. 'I listen to everybody, and then I make a decision.' Loomer has also sometimes criticized decisions by the White House. Most recently, she said accepting the gift of a jet from Qatar would be a stain on the Trump presidency. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
