ELLSWORTH COUNTY - The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) plans to begin a resurfacing project along K-14 in Ellsworth County, starting Thursday.
Project work will consist of a mill and overlay on about 7 miles of K-14 from K-140 north to I-70, including the ramps at I-70.
During construction, flaggers and a pilot car will be used to guide one lane of traffic through construction at a reduced speed. Drivers should plan for delays of 15 minutes or less during daylight hours.
Venture Corporation, of Great Bend, is the prime contractor for this $1.6 million project, which is scheduled to be completed in November, conditions permitting.
KDOT urges motorists to stay alert and follow posted signs in all work zones. For current road conditions, visit kandrive.gov or call 5-1-1.
