Construction is underway at Fantastic Caverns in Springfield, Mo., to improve on-site groundwater infiltration, upgrade parking, install an access drive, construct an entry gate and build a welcome pavilion.
The project involves reworking existing parking (to include pervious pavement) and pedestrian access to the existing visitor’s center, and includes the addition of a covered walkway and drop off, and new entrance gate and access drive.
The new construction will cover about 4.98 acres at an estimated cost of $1.5 million. It is expected to be completed in late fall.
