Kansas Department of Transportation bridge repairs on the K-141 bridge north of Kanopolis Lake are complete, and the highway in Ellsworth County is now fully open to traffic.

KDOT says the project started in March 2025 and ran into delays connected to materials and the bridge location. Although both lanes are open on the bridge, the contractor still has minor work to finish, and most of it will not affect traffic.
