**ROAD OPEN**
MoDOT Job JNE0152 Bridge A9503, Route W PIKE County Bridge replacement over Little Ramsey Creek north of Route H in Paynesville, the total length of improvement being 0.152 miles.

Sometimes when we are in the middle of a project, it is easy to focus on the problems in front of us: schedules, weather, equipment, deliveries, changes, and everything else that comes with getting a job completed.

That is why we look at pictures like these.

The before picture shows what was there when we started. The after pictures show the improvement when the work is finished: a new bridge, improved roadway approaches, new pavement and markings, better shoulders and grading, updated safety features, and a cleaner, more complete crossing.

But the biggest improvement is more than what you can see in the pictures.
When we finish a project like this, we leave behind something that the public will use every day. Long after our equipment is gone and our crews have moved on to the next project; the work stays behind.

That is something worth taking pride in. We are not just completing projects. We are improving the places where we work and leaving something better than what was there when we arrived.When you look at the before and after pictures, take a little pride in the difference.

That finished product represents everyone who had a hand in building it.

Please be aware when going to appointments, our team is working hard to bring these improvements to the HRH complex.

⚠️ Temporary Road Closure on Hannibal Regional Campus Starts Today, October 26 ⚠️

A road resurfacing project will temporarily affect traffic on the Hannibal Regional campus. The section of Medical Drive between the main campus entrance and Hannibal Children’s Center will be closed (please see map below). The project is expected to take approximately three weeks to complete.

How this affects our community:
𝗧𝗼 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗚𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗽, 𝗛𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹, 𝗘𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗥𝗼𝗼𝗺, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝘆 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗿 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿: If you are approaching campus from Highway MM on the south side of campus, do not use the Shinn Lane entrance, but use the traditional roundabout entrance or Emergency Drive for medical emergencies.

𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘀 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿:
The Children’s Center will not be accessible via the main entrance. Access to the Children’s Center will be off the Shinn Lane side of campus.

We appreciate your patience as we make these campus improvements.

Thank you for choosing Hannibal Regional. We’re committed to making your health care experience better, every step of the way.

We erect a lot of Pre-Engineered Metal Buildings, but not often do we get to take one down, especially while keeping the internal processes operational inside the building. Jeff Veach and his crew have down an exceptional job in safely removing the old exterior structure. Nice work by Herbie on the crane and the rigging crew in removing the roof in one piece!

Project Milestone: 150-Foot Truss Pedestrian Bridge Set

On Friday, October 9, 2026, Bleigh Construction Company successfully set a 150-foot prefabricated half-through truss pedestrian bridge, with hoisting performed by Budrovich Contracting. The lift followed detailed coordination and safety planning with CPKC Railway and the project crews.

Manufactured by Contech Engineered Solutions, a Quikrete company, the weathering-steel bridge measures 150 feet long and 8 feet wide and weighs 55,300 pounds. It’s half-through configuration features parallel chords, Pratt diagonals, galvanized chain-link fencing reaching a total height of 10 feet, and shop-installed G-90 deck forms that are ready for a field-placed reinforced concrete deck.

Crane assembly began around 7:30 a.m., and the bridge was ready to be set by 11:30 a.m. The operation proceeded smoothly, with Bleigh Construction providing the required traffic control. After the lift and demobilization were completed, the crane was off-site by approximately 3:00 p.m. The next major step is placement of the reinforced concrete bridge deck.

We are proud to recognize the Bleigh Construction crew whose teamwork and attention to safety helped make this successful installation possible: Gavin Voepel, Andrew Quinlin, Nick McNew, Jeff Armour, and Brian Shellhorse, under the leadership of Michael Kite.

Thank you as well to Budrovich Contracting, Hutchison Engineering and engineer Matt Walker, Contech Engineered Solutions, CPKC Railway, and everyone who contributed to planning and completing this milestone. This bridge may be a little different from the structures our team typically builds, but our employees once again rose to the challenge. Great work, team!

Family Dining at Fireside Sports Bar & Grill is now open!

Renovations are completed on the new Family Dining area at Fireside Sports Bar & Grill, connected to the Mark Twain Casino, LaGrange, MO.

The project included creating a new entrance into the dining room, constructing two new restrooms, completing plumbing and concrete work, installing new walls, ceilings, doors, and structural supports, an aluminum-framed glass wall between the casino floor and family dining area. The space was finished with new drywall and paint to create a comfortable, welcoming environment for families.

We’re proud to have helped bring this renovation to life and invite the community to stop in and enjoy a meal in the newly completed space! Thank you to all our subs and suppliers for making this project look great.
