Diverging diamond roadway will cause closure of bridge in Branson
The Route 248 bridge over Route 65 in Branson will be closed at 9 a.m. Friday, Nov. 18, and may remain closed into early Monday, Nov. 21.
When the bridge is reopened late Sunday or by 6 a.m. Monday, the bridge will be in the new Diverging Diamond Interchange traffic pattern. That means cars will criss-cross at traffic signals at the end of the bridge and drive across the bridge on the left-hand side, allowing for smoother and safer left turns onto Route 65.
The ramps at the Route 248/65 interchange will remain open over the weekend. However, drivers can make only right turns from the Route 65 ramps onto Route 248 or from Route 248 onto Route 65. Drivers will not be able to turn left onto or off of Route 248. No traffic will be allowed to cross the Route 248 bridge. Drivers are urged to use the Route 65/Branson Hills Parkway interchange north of Route 248 or the Route 65/Route 76 interchange south of Route 248 to reach their destinations.
