WASHINGTON, Mo. (KMOX) – MoDOT crews worked to demolish the old Route 47 Missouri River Bridge in Washington Thursday morning.
The channel crossing will remain closed for up to 48 hours after the blast. MoDOT advises that boaters should plan on staying on the side of the bridge where they put in.
The public was permitted to view the implosion at James W. Rennick Riverfront Park, however, if you missed it, you can watch it here:
