The Kansas Department of Transportation has started a concrete patching project on U.S. 169 in Allen County.
Crews are working on a 0.5 mile portion of the highway approximately two miles north of the Neosho County line, south of Humboldt.
Traffic is being guided through the work zone by traffic signals, and the road is reduced to one lane. The intent is to finish the patching by the end of July, conditions permitting.
KDOT urges motorists to stay alert, follow posted signs and refrain from hand-held mobile device use in all active work zones.
For current road conditions, visit kandrive.gov or call 511. For updates on construction projects in southeast Kansas, visit ksdot.gov/projects/southeast-kansas-projects.
