U.S. 54 resurfacing project starts this month

 

The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) expects to begin work on a U.S. 54 resurfacing project the week of June 14. The project starts at Allen-Bourbon county line and continues east through Bourbon County to end at Fort Scott.

 

Project activity includes a surface recycle and ultra-thin bonded asphalt overlay. KDOT awarded the $2.8 million construction contract to Apac-Central, Fayetteville, Ark. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct one-lane traffic through the work zone; expect delays of 15 minutes or less on days when the project is active.

 

The road work should be completed by late August, weather permitting. Persons with questions may contact Iola Area Engineer Troy Howard, (620) 901-6557, or Public Affairs Manager Priscilla Petersen, (620) 902-6433. Check KDOT’s updated traveler information website, www.Kandrive.org, for more road condition and construction details. KDOT urges all motorists to be alert and obey the warning signs when approaching and driving through a work zone.
