The Missouri Department of Transportation will sell 23 marketable properties including two from Northwest Missouri.

“Our goal is to sell a fairly large number of properties in a concentrated amount of time,” said Gregory Wood, Realty to Roads Project Director in MoDOT’s Right of Way Division. “We want to draw attention to the fact we have property for sale and get land we’re no longer using in the hands of owners who can put it to good use. A benefit to everyone is the fact that the money from the sales goes to fund needed road and bridge projects.”

The Northwest District will be selling a property in Clinton County and a property in Daviess County by sealed bid.

The Clinton County property is the former Lathrop commuter lot and is located at the S.E. Quadrant of Interstate 35 and Missouri Highway 116, east of the service road. The site is 6.9 acres in size.

The property in Daviess County is the former Winston commuter lot and is located at the S.E. Quadrant of Interstate 35 and U.S. Highway 69 between the service road and the interstate. The site is 2.07 acres in size.

The bids for these two properties will be opened at 2 p.m. Nov. 18 at the district office in St. Joseph. Details about the program can be found at www.modot.org/realtyforsale.
