Summary
Highway 54’s massive widening project near Camdenton is halfway complete, transforming three lanes into five—with two in each direction and a center turn lane. Started in November 2025 on the eastbound side, crews are now shifting to the westbound lanes while keeping one lane open each way. Priced at nearly $7 million and managed by Capital Paving and Construction, this upgrade aims to boost safety and traffic flow. The full project is slated for completion by late 2027—another year of construction ahead, but a major win for regional mobility.
