The Kansas Department of Transportation plans to temporarily close a portion of I-70 in Geary County at J-Hill Road. The closure is necessary to demolish and remove the existing J-Hill Road bridge which will be replaced.
Eastbound and westbound I-70 will close at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 24, and reopen at 7 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 25. I-70 traffic will be diverted up and down the interchange ramps at exit 299 during the closures. Local traffic will be unable to access I-70 at exit 299 during the closure.
