MoDOT has awarded the Rocheport Bridge project of Interstate 70 over the Missouri River at Rocheport, Missouri. Construction is planned to be underway fall of 2021 and continue through 2024. The design-build team consists of Lunda Team, made up of Lunda Construction Co., Parsons Transportation Group, Inc., Dan Brown & Associates, and Hugh Zeng United.

The project will have two phases to minimize traffic disruption during construction which is crucial for I-70 as major economic route for the midwest. Questions can be directed to RocheportBridge@modot.mo.gov.

The global pandemic caused us to take stock of what is important. Without a doubt, the answer is clear. People. People are important. And when people are the top priority, their safety is crucial.

Critical infrastructure continued to be maintained and constructed during the pandemic in most areas. At Pfefferkorn, this means working while social distancing, wearing masks when in close proximity and conducting meetings virtually. Our team and clients didn’t miss a beat. Information was communicated effortlessly thanks to technology. We also used masks made of high visibility material. Project success was achieved at the speed of safety.

During this time our safety program adaptes to include pandemic protocols. Dogged determination conditioned so many to fight through minor symptoms and get the job done. The pandemic exposed the dangers of this approach. Sneezing and coughing are no longer considered minor. The Pfefferkorn culture rewired this fight-through-the-discomfort mindset. Staying home while ill demonstrates care for others and their wellness.

There will always be things outside of our control. Because of this, we foster a solid culture of safety. The pandemic not yet over, so we at Pfefferkorn are committed to continuing CDC protocols to keep you and our team safe. We are so grateful for the opportunities to serve our community and will go the extra mile to keep all safe.

After a year of a global pandemic, Pfefferkorn has one thing to say. THANK YOU! Thank you to our clients and team for continuing critical infrastructure projects. This year, Pfefferkorn celebrates five years in business, doing work we love and believe in. We look forward to the post-Covid landscape with in-person communication and exciting infrastructure to come.

We wish you and and your family a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful 2021!
