Monday, April 7, the Kansas Department of Transportation expects to begin resurfacing work on U.S. 400, starting at Strauss (York Road) in Labette County and continuing east for 14.2 miles to K-7 in Cherokee County.
Project activity includes a mill and overlay. Flaggers and a pilot car operation will guide one-lane traffic through the work zone during daylight hours. Expect delays of 15 minutes or less. The resurfacing work should be finished by mid-June, weather permitting.
Bettis Asphalt and Construction Inc. of Topeka is the primary contractor for the $3.2 million road work. Check KDOT’s updated traveler information website, www.kandrive.gov, for more highway conditions and construction details.
