With conditions permitting, KDOT expects the project to be completed by early 2027. The agency notes that when construction affects state routes, official detours are designated on nearby state highways for safety and maintenance considerations.
Bridges, Inc., based in Newton, is the primary contractor for the roughly $2.3 million project. KDOT also urges motorists to stay alert, follow posted signs, and avoid hand-held mobile device use in all active work zones.
