The Kansas Department of Transportation expects to begin work on a U.S. 54 resurfacing project the week of June 14th.
The project starts at the 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.
