The Missouri Department of Transportation held a public meeting in the Wallace Center on Wednesday to hear citizens’ concerns regarding the I-44 Corridor. The meeting was the last in a series of Forward 44 sessions MoDOT held as it conducts an environmental impact study to gauge improvement potential for the state highway. “We’re just having a series of public meetings now to get input from users of the system on what they see as the most pressing issues are on I-44 from the Oklahoma line to the outskirts of Saint Louis,” said District Engineer Michelle Watkins.
