Game Day Traffic Alerts

Posted Oct 15, 2021 8:10 PM

Those traveling around or out of Bill Snyder Family Stadium around the end of the K-State Football game vs. Iowa State should expect longer than usual travel times due to the road construction in the surrounding areas. 

Game time is set for 6:30 p.m., games usually last 3 to 4 hours, with post game traffic closures beginning of the fourth quarter, or approximately one hour before the end of the game. 

  1. Reconstruction of Kimball Avenue between Candlewood Drive and Seth Child Rd. (K-113) west of Bill Snyder Family Stadium has reduced traffic on Kimball to two lanes head-to-head in the area. 
  2. The northbound entrance ramp to Seth Child Rd. is closed, traffic wanting to go northbound will be diverted at Browning Ave. to Marlatt Ave., then west to Seth Child Rd. 
  3. Manhattan residents be advised that traffic eastbound on Kimball Ave. will be diverted for a short time to allow exiting football traffic to utilize both lanes through the construction zone onto Scenic Dr. out to K-18 and I-70. 
  1. For ER visits one lane of College Ave. will always remain open for ambulance and emergency room traffic. For non-ambulance visits to the ER, take Claflin Rd. to College Ave., or Marlatt Ave. to College Ave. to get to the hospital.
