The Lake of the Ozarks will soon see the new Passover Bridge project begin construction.  The original bridge plans have had to undergo some redesign to help the community save money, but the redesign will not compromise the structural integrity or traffic flow of the roadway.  The city is expected to save almost $100,000 with the bridge redesign.

Original plans called for a four-lane boulevard style road that would lead from the expressway to the expected John Q. Hammons' resort on Wilson Drive , which will start construction soon also.  Costs before the change were estimated to be almost $2 million.

The plans now call for a two lane parkway-style road that will be separated by a median.  The savings on the redesign of the Passover Bridge project will come from property acquisition and grading.

The Lake of the Ozarks area, mostly Osage Beach , will see a lot of changes with the city's master transportation plan, which will on going through 2025.  If, by chance, a large development moves to the area, the costs for more road improvement will then pass on to the developer.  Any large developments that come to the area will have to have a traffic impact analysis done before permit approval.

The Passover Bridge project along with the city's master transportation plan will really improve the community and everyone's transportation time.
