Missouri transportation officials say the eastbound I-70 off-ramp to Columbia’s Providence road is now open.

The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) says while the Providence road bridge over I-70 in Columbia remains closed, the eastbound I-70 off-ramp to Providence opened to motorists Friday evening.

MoDOT notes the other three ramps at the interchange are still closed. The two westbound ramps could open in the coming weeks.
