The rebuilding of I-64 (also know as Highway 40) will be a major undertaking in 2008 and 2009 that will affect transportation through the west corridor of the St. Louis region. This page has been created to give our Fox patrons access to information and links that will assist with navigation during this time. The links above provide access to up-to-date travel times and mapping alternatives around the construction.

Current News:
On January 2, the outer 5 miles of the construction zone, from I-270 to I-170, will be closed and remain so during 2008. Some things you should know in planning your trip
- Heading east on I-64, most traffic will be diverted north and south at I-270, with one lane going to Ballas Road.
- The work on I-170 should be completed by then, with the southbound traffic diverted in two lanes onto the new ramp that will carry traffic eastbound on I-64 from that point all the way to Grand Blvd. (the Fox exit) and beyond.
- Westbound I-64 from the Fox will be open to I-170. Two lanes will carry traffic from there north on I-170.
There are excellent drawings on www.thenewi64.com (look under construction zone) that show in great detail how traffic will flow between the interstates during construction.
