Beginning at 8 p.m. on Thursday, July 6, the southbound U.S. 69 ramp to 151st Street will close for approximately 30 days for grading and paving work as part of the 69 Express project. Detours will be marked.
The Kansas Department of Transportation’s project will build a new express toll lane in each direction adjacent to the existing general-purpose lanes to increase safety and improve congestion in the area. The express lanes will open to traffic by the end of 2025. Additional work is also taking place at U.S. 69 and the 167th Street interchange as part of the project.
