A signing project in Riley County will begin on Wednesday, weather permitting. According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, contractors will replace signs located along U.S. 24, U.S. 77, K-18, K-82, K-113, K-114 and K-177.
Advanced signing and cones will mark the active work zone. Impacts to motorists should be minimal, however, a single lane reduction may occur on some of the four-lane roadways. Traffic will merge to the open lane at those times.
Work will take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours and is expected to be complete by June 2023.
Cooper Construction, of Emporia, is the contractor on the $1.8 million project.
KDOT urges all motorists to be alert and obey the warning signs when approaching and driving through a highway work zone. To stay aware of road construction projects across Kansas, go to www.kandrive.org or call 5-1-1.
