AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Memorial Day rush hits Missouri with extra enforcement: MoDOT and the Missouri State Highway Patrol say this weekend could bring record traffic—about 800,000 drivers in the state—and more than 1,000 work zones, with troopers focused on speeding, impaired driving, and water safety around lakes and rivers. New summer flight options: Springfield-Branson National Airport added nonstop service to Gulf Shores, Alabama, and more direct routes are rolling out for travelers. Local attractions keep the momentum: Thousand Hills State Park in Kirksville cut the ribbon on a new accessible beach, and Kansas City’s riverfront is turning into an outdoor art gallery with the MO River Murals Fest. Sports on the rise: Missouri’s men’s golf team grabbed an early lead at the NGI after a strong opening round. Safety and weather watch: Storms and spotty showers are in the forecast, while officials urge drivers to slow down and plan ahead.
