A Kansas Department of Transportation resurfacing project is scheduled to begin on U.S. 24 in Pottawatomie County on Monday, Sept. 9, conditions permitting.
The project will take place on the eastbound lanes of U.S. 24, from approximately Excel Road to Columbian Road near Wamego.
The active work zone will be reduced to one lane and will have a 16-foot width restriction. Each median crossing in the corridor will temporarily close while work takes place on them. All lanes will be open during non-working hours.
Work is expected to be complete within one week, conditions permitting. Crews will work during daylight hours and on Saturday, Sept. 14, if necessary.
Vance Brothers Inc. of Kansas City, Mo., is the prime contractor on the $490,000 project.
