The City of Chanute has been awarded $474,000 dollars as a part of Governor Kelly's Cost Share Funding program.

The Cost Share program is designed to help rural and urban areas advance transportation projects to improve safety, support job retention and growth, relieve congestion, and improve access and mobility.

The funds from the program will be used to add turning lanes, a signal, and concrete pavement at the intersection of Plummer and 21st streets.
