St. Louis (KSDK) - The St. Louis Economic Council released results Tuesday on a study conducted on the economic impact of the Chrysler plant closure.
Experts with the council spent the last 18 months conducting interviews and collecting data on the plant closure.
The study reveals 43,000 jobs, both direct and indirect, were lost throughout the regional economy.
"With this study we are seeking to better understand the scope of the impact and our regional economic strengths, and in so doing, develop a game plan for growing our economy," said St. Louis County Executive Charlie Dooley.
The study calculates the economic impact to the St. Louis region at $15 billion, which affected the bi-state area.
