Starting Monday in Coffeyville, Highway 169 South or South Walnut Street in Coffeyville will be reduced to one lane traffic from 15th Street south to Walden.

 The reason for the closure is a KDOT Pavement Restoration Project. Southbound traffic will be detoured west on 11th Street, then south on Willow, and east on Eldridge. 

The city says this is a 90 day working project, but adds that weather is always a factor in road construction and that there is no definite end date for the project.
