Beaver Creek bridge in Taney County shut down! Repairs start Nov 26!

KY3 abstract: The Beaver Creek bridge in Taney County is now the third major bridge to be shut down by Missouri Department of Transportation in the last three weeks.

In just about a two hour period Saturday, dozens of cars made it as far at the road leading up to the Beaver Creek bridge and had to turn right back around. Many of the drivers told KY3 their only option is a 45 minute detour.

MODOT: U.S. Route 160 at Beaver Creek near Kissee Mills CLOSED Immediately Due to Bridge deterioration!

What: U.S. Route 160 at the bridge over Beaver Creek near Kissee Mills CLOSED immediately due to deterioration of the bridge structure

Why: A inspection of the bridge this week has shown extreme deterioration of the support components located under the bridge deck that connect the deck to the girders and other support structures. The bridge will remain CLOSED until repairs can be made. Currently, there is no timetable for completing repairs. More information will be announced later when repairs are scheduled.

What is this place?

Kissee Mills, MO - While driving down Hwy 76 in Kissee Mills, I had just reach Highway O when I noticed an establishment on the left. Large lettering announced that it was 'The Outpost', but that was all. A small sign indicated they were open, but with nothing else to go by, I decided not to stop.

The Junction Bar and Grill thriving!




After being away for more than a month, I stopped in at a favorite watering hole called the Junction Bar and Grill to see how this fledgling, yet growing establishment was making out. Once inside, I ran into the owner Mike Osterday who served me a nice cold beer while filling me in with all the latest gossip. And, even though it was mid afternoon, customers had begun to file in, so our gossip session was short lived.

The Junction, which first opened it doors back in April of 2012, has grown into a really nice place to visit. Mike has installed pool tables, video games, TV’s, Keno and all the sorts of the things you’d expect in a first class establishment. In addition to great beverages, The Junction also serves up a full selection of food items as this menu illustrates.


The Junction is located in Kissee Mills Missouri near the intersection of highway 160-76. They can also be reached by calling 417-546-2550. They're hours are Tuesday thru Saturday 11AM to midnight at this time. Be sure and stop in and enjoy this establishment’s fine hospitality!
