Pavement repairs on U.S. Route 36 in Livingston County, initially scheduled to commence on February 4, have been delayed until spring. Magruder Paving, LLC, in collaboration with the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), announced the postponement with an expected start around mid-March.

The repair work is planned for both directions of Route 36 under the Canadian Pacific Railroad Bridge and the U.S. Route 65 Bridge in Chillicothe. A new date will be announced once it is confirmed.
