The Kansas Department of Transportation will begin repairs today on a bridge located south of Humboldt.

 

The repair work will cause some minor disruptions to traffic on US-169 as KDOT works to repair both lanes, including the exit and on-ramps to the Delaware Road Bridge, located about a mile southeast of Humboldt. The repairs will be done in two phases, with the first taking place on the westbound lanes and ramps.

 

Detour signs will route traffic through the work zone. Traffic across the bridge will be reduced to one lane and guided by traffic signals. The speed limit will be reduced to 45 mph in the work zone. Travelers can expect delays of up to 15 minutes.

 

The project is expected to be completed by December.
