The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) invites the public to review proposed improvements on the U.S. 69 corridor in Crawford County during a series of open houses in June.

 

The four in-person open houses and one virtual open house will share the same information. Project team members will be available to answer questions about the proposed improvements that were developed based on feedback from the previous three rounds of open houses and insights gained from data collected throughout the study area.

 

Participants are encouraged to drop by at any time during the in-person open houses, as formal presentations will not be held. The virtual open house will be recorded and will include a walk-through of the proposed improvements with a question-and-answer session.
