On Monday, work began for a bridge replacement on Shipton Road and a bridge removal on Granville Road, just east of Kansas Highway 143 in Saline County.
During construction, Shipton Road and Granville Road will be closed at the location where the contractor is actively working on the bridge. Local traffic will follow a signed detour via N. Ohio Street and Interstate 70.
L & M Contractors Inc. of Great Bend is the prime contractor and has scheduled this $668,194 project to be completed by May 2023, weather permitting.
