A resurfacing project on U.S. 400 will begin next week.

The Kansas Department of Transportation plans to begin the project in Greenwood County east of the junction of K-99 and U.S. 400 and continue east for 15 miles, ending at the Greenwood-Wilson county line. Project activity includes placement of a 3-inch overlay, centerline rumble strips, shoulders and edge wedge. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct one-lane traffic through the work zone. Expect delays of 15 minutes or less during daylight hours. KDOT awarded the construction contract of $12.9 million to APAC-Kansas Inc., Shears Division, of Hutchinson. Weather permitting, the project should be finished by late September.
