The Kansas Department of Transportation announced that they will host two open houses to provide information on the U.S. 24 Corridor Management Plan (CMP) in Riley and Pottawatomie counties.
Both open houses will present the same information, and KDOT project team members will be available to answer questions and gather public input. No formal presentations will be given; attendees may come and go at any time during the events.
Meeting times and locations:
- Monday, June 22, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.: Wamego Senior & Community Center, 501 Ash Street in Wamego
- Tuesday, June 23, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.: CiCo Park – Pottorf Hall, 1710 Avery Avenue in Manhattan
The proposed CMP will update the 2009 Pottawatomie County study that evaluated U.S. 24 from Manhattan to Wamego; and extend the study corridor north to the U.S. 77/U.S. 24 junction in Riley County.
The plan will evaluate current and future traffic operations in Riley and Pottawatomie counties and identify potential improvements to enhance safety and efficiency along the corridor.
Information presented at the open houses will be available on the project website on Monday, June 22. The public can also complete a survey and submit comments through July 8 by visiting ksdot.gov/US24-Riley-Pott.
