Kansas Department of Transportation
According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, traffic changes are anticipated to start Monday along Kansas Highway 96 from the Lane/Ness county line east to east city limits of Ness City.
K-96 traffic will be reduced to one lane in sections as they work to resurface this 18.32-mile-long project area.
Motorists should expect delays of up to 15 minutes as flaggers and a pilot car direct one-lane traffic through the work zone.
The lane reduction will be marked by signs and cones. K-96 will be open to normal traffic when construction is not taking place.
Venture Corporation of Great Bend is the contractor on this $4 million project. Weather permitting, it is expected to be completed by the beginning of October.
For more information, contact David Ubel., Area Construction Manager, at (620) 682-7938 or Yazmin Moreno, KDOT Southwest Public Information Officer, at (620) 765-7080.
