Bridge repair work is taking place along U.S. Highway 283 on the North Fork Walnut Creek bridge in Ness County, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation.
U.S. 283 traffic will be reduced to one lane in both directions, and a temporary signal will direct one-lane traffic in the work area. The speed limit will be reduced to 30 mph.
The lane reduction and temporary signal will be effective throughout the duration of the project. Motorists should expect delays of 10-15 minutes.
L&M Contractors Inc. of Great Bend is the contractor on this $596,817.50 project that is expected to be completed by the end of July, weather permitting.
