Starting Monday the next phase of Denison Avenue construction will start, with a closure extending south from the NBAF entrance through the Kerr Drive intersection and ending midway between Kerr and Jardine drives. The overall area detour will remain in place for Denison Avenue frontages south of the NBAF complex. During this next period of construction, traffic access to Denison south of Kimball will remain “right in, right out” only. Denison traffic will not be able to cross Kimball to the north nor turn left across traffic to go westbound — only turn right onto Kimball.
Westbound traffic on Kimball will be able to turn left onto Denison, but must yield to oncoming traffic before turning as there is still no signal in place at the intersection. The City anticipates signal components to arrive later this month and plans for installation to occur around the third week of March, but this timeline is subject to change. Denison will remain closed from NBAF to south of Kerr Drive through summer 2025, but this closure will continue to move south afterward as work proceeds.
Access to the K-State Recreation Center, BRI and Veterinary Medicine buildings will remain impacted by this closure.
