ST. CHARLES COUNTY, Mo. — Motorists who use West Meyer Road will face an extended closure between Highway W and Duenke Road as work continues on a road reconstruction project.

The St. Charles County Highway Department announced October 30 that the section will remain closed to through traffic until approximately mid-January 2027. The extension allows contractors to continue the next phase of construction.

Drivers should follow the posted detour from Highway W to Duenke Road. County officials say Oglesby Park remains accessible from the Duenke Road side of the closure.

Additional closure sections may follow later in the larger project. The county reminds drivers that signed detours take precedence over ordinary navigation instructions; its Highway Department is available for road-project information at 636-949-7305.
