Route 28 is a highway in central Missouri. Its eastern terminus is at U.S. Route 50 in eastern Gasconade County; its western terminus is at Interstate 44 east of St. Robert. It is a medium length highway in the upper Ozarks in central Missouri generally northwest of Rolla.[1]

History

Route 28 was one of the original state highways and it has changed very little. Its termini are currently the same as they were in 1922.[2]

Route description

Missouri Route 28 begins at a junction with I-44 and Route Z east of St. Robert in Pulaski County. The highway heads easterly, passing through rolling terrain before reaching Dixon, where it intersects Route C, which provides access to Route 133 west of town. Continuing eastward, Route 28 enters Maries County, where it meets US 63 near Vienna. The highway runs concurrent with US 63 for a short distance, where it crosses the Gasconade River on the Roy Bassett Memorial Bridge,[3] before separating and heading northeasterly toward Vichy.[4]

Further along, Route 28 crosses the Dry Fork Creek, where a newly constructed bridge replaced an older structure that had been in service since 1929. The highway continues through rural landscapes, passing through the unincorporated community of Belle before reaching a junction with Route 89, which leads north toward Linn. Route 28 then enters Gasconade County, where it reaches Owensville. Within Owensville, the highway intersects Route 19, forming a brief concurrency before separating again east of town. Leaving Owensville, Route 28 continues easterly through agricultural terrain, passing through the unincorporated community of Drake before reaching its eastern terminus at US 50 in Rosebud.[5]
