Road resurfacing work begins Thursday in Greenwood County.
The Kansas Department of Transportation says resurfacing of US Highway 54 across much of the county could last into early December. Work will start at the Greenwood-Butler County line and move to the west Kansas Highway 99 junction outside Eureka, meaning about 16 miles of highway will be repaved. There will be no work in the Eureka city limits with this project.
The work list includes a 1.5-inch asphalt overlay, rumble strips and edge wedge. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct one-lane traffic through the work zone. Delays of up to 15 minutes can be expected.
APAC-Kansas Shears Division of Hutchinson won the project with a $3.5 million bid.
