Last week, the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) shared plans to begin a resurfacing project on U.S. 54 in Greenwood County. The 16-mile project starts at the Butler-Greenwood County line and continues east to the west K-99 junction. No work will take place within the city limits of Eureka.
Project activity includes placement of a 1½-inch asphalt overlay, rumble strips and edge wedge. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct one-lane traffic through the work zone. Expect delays of 15 minutes or less during daylight hours on weekdays through early December.
KDOT awarded the construction contract of $3.5 million to APAC-Kansas Inc., Shears Division, of Hutchinson. Check KDOT’s updated traveler information website, www.Kandrive.gov, for more highway condition and construction details. Persons with questions may contact Construction Manager Warren Ebberts at 620-901-6549 or Public Affairs Manager Priscilla Petersen at 620-902-6433.
