K-190 Resurfacing Project To Start

The Kansas Department of Transportation anticipates that work on a resurfacing project on K-190 in Grant and Haskell counties could begin as early as Monday, September 21. This is an asphalt overlay project that runs from the K-190/U.S. 160 junction in Grant County to the K-190/U.S. 56 junction in Haskell County.

During construction, traffic will be limited to one lane through the work zone, guided by a pilot car. Drivers can expect delays of 15 minutes or less. The Kansas DOT urges drivers to be alert, pay attention to all work zone warning signs, slow down when approaching a work zone and be prepared to stop.

J & R Sand Company, Inc., of Liberal is the primary contractor on this approximately $1.1 million preservation project. KDOT expects work on this project to be completed by mid-October, depending on weather.
