Where this comes from, and what it does not cover

Every item above comes straight from MoDOT’s Traveler Information Map feed, which the department updates continuously. Winter surface conditions come from the same department’s road condition report.

MoDOT only tracks state highways. City streets in Moberly, Huntsville, Cairo, Clark, Clifton Hill, Higbee, Jacksonville and Renick are not in this feed, and neither are county roads or the Special Road District’s roads. A pothole on Morley Street will never appear here. Whose road is it, and who to call lays out which of the four agencies owns which pavement and gives the phone number for each.

To report a problem on a state highway, use MoDOT’s Report a Road Concern form or call 1-888-275-6636.

This report is rebuilt automatically from MoDOT’s live feed. Seen something we missed, or a closure that is not on the state’s map? Email news@moberlymainline.com.
