RENO COUNTY, Kan. — Here is the latest update for new or ongoing ramp closures at the west K-14/U.S. 50 junction in Reno County:
The ramp connecting southbound K-14 to westbound U.S. 50 remains on schedule to open about 10 a.m. Saturday, April 6. However, the ramp is expected to be closed again Monday, April 8, and to reopen about 10 a.m. Tuesday, April 9.

The map shows the ramp closure locations, marked in red.
The ramp closures are part of a nearly $3.6 million patching project on K-14. The Kansas Department of Transportation project is from the west K-14/U.S. 50 junction north to Yaggy Road. The length is almost 7 miles. The work is expected to be completed around mid-August.
During the work, ramp closures will occur at times. K-14 traffic will be restricted to one lane and controlled by flaggers or a pilot car. Motorists should be prepared to slow down and stop and face delays of up to 15 minutes.
Iowa Civil Contracting Inc., of Victor, Iowa, is the primary contractor for the $3,559,085 project.
