Highway construction is coming soon for central and west Chase County.
Cones and signage are already out on US Highway 50 in Strong City, according to Sheriff Richard Dorneker. The four-lane segment in Strong City will be reduced to two lanes and the speed limit will be 30 mph in town. There is also a 12-foot lane width restriction in place throughout the work zone. Drivers can expect delays and short stops during the project, which should end in early December, weather permitting.
Vogts-Parga Construction of Newton won the contract with a $1.8 million bid.
