WENTZVILLE — Work on adding lanes to the Wentzville-to-Warrenton stretch of Interstate 70 is expected to begin around November 2024, the Missouri Department of Transportation announced Monday. The approximate 18-mile segment will be the second portion of the 200-mile, $2.8 billion widening project, following a 20-mile stretch between Columbia and Kingdom City in central Missouri that will go first. Work there will begin earlier in the year. The sequencing for the mammoth project was disclosed as MoDOT began a series of public meetings over the next two weeks along the I-70 corridor, including one Monday in Wentzville.
