The Kansas Department of Transportation has started a resurfacing project on U.S. 166 in Montgomery County. The project starts at the south U.S. 75/U.S. 166 junction in Caney and continues east for 14 miles, ending at the west city limits of Coffeyville.

Project activity includes a one-inch mill and one-inch asphalt overlay. Flaggers and a pilot car operation will guide one-lane traffic through the work zone; expect delays of 15 minutes or less.

KDOT awarded the nearly $2 million construction contract to Cornejo & Sons, LLC, of Wichita. Weather permitting, the project should be completed by late April.
