It’s still hard for me to believe that it has taken more time to rebuild this bridge that it has to finish Phase 1 of the Highway 40 (I-64) project, but the Jefferson Bridge is almost finished. The Post Dispatch is reporting that two lanes of the bridge will be opened on December 15th with [...]

Highway 40 closure finally getting attention
I posted a blurb a couple weeks back about the lack of attention the closure of the second phase of the Highway 40 highway project is getting. Looks the the Post Dispatch finally took notice of this too. Kind of a self fulfilling prophecy coming from them since they really haven’t been giving the issue [...]
Highway 40 construction
This past January the St. Louis area was braced for the worst. With the pending shutdown of Highway 40-61 (I-64 if you prefer) from 170 to 270, everyone was changing their driving habits in anticipation of the change. It turns out that the impact was less than expected. So much less that many people have [...]
Mississippi River Bridge a done deal
For better or worse, it looks like that Mississippi River Bridge plan I posted on the other day is a done deal. Missouri Governor Matt Blunt and Illinois Governor Rob Blagojevich signed off on the deal this morning. I think this bridge is important for the future of our region, but this four-lane design is [...]
Real Mississippi River Bridge deal coming this week?

This time, unlike last week, I’m not joking. The paper says something official will be coming later this week. Word has it that the project will not utilize tolls. Unfortunately, it [...]
New Mississippi River Bridge design unveiled
Just when you think St. Louis lacks imagination, they come up with a really amazing plan like this. Check out this new Mississippi River bridge proposal to link Missouri and Illinois at St. Louis. The arch design would complement our “Gateway to the West” arch quite well. Projections only have this puppy costing an amazingly [...]
St. Louis traffic light nightmares
Oh how I hate sitting at traffic lights. I understand why they exist and can’t think of any better way to manage traffic, but I still hate them. And traffic lights in the City of St. Louis are some of the worst you’ll ever come across. I live in Benton Park and workout at the [...]
Expand the St. Louis Metrolink System again?
While we wait for the Cross County Metrolink line and in the midst of discussions on cutting back Metro services, area transportation managers are busy planning future MetroLink expansions. Area leaders feel that this public transit service needs to expand into North & South City, in order to provide transportation alternatives to a broader area.. [...]
