The week of June 3, the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) expects to start a project to replace the Burnt Creek bridge on U.S. 54 in Greenwood County. The bridge is 3.5 miles east of the Butler County line.
Two-way traffic will be placed on a temporary road around the work zone. A reduced speed limit will be in effect. The new bridge should be open by early 2025, weather permitting.
KDOT awarded the construction contract of $2.4 million to B & B Bridge Company LLC, St. Paul, Kansas. Check KDOT’s updated traveler information website, www.kandrive.gov, for more highway condition and construction details.
