The Kansas Department of Transportation has begun the next phase of interchange improvements at the K-18/I-70 interchange.

Due to this progression of work, traffic has been reduced to one lane from exit 301 at Henry Drive (Marshall Field) to exit 303 at K-18 to continue construction and install safety barrier.

The lane reduction is being extended throughout this portion of the project and is expected to last through August, conditions permitting. Motorists should be aware that additional traffic changes will take place as work continues to progress.

King Construction, of Hesston, is the prime contractor for this $27.5 million interchange project and has scheduled the entire project to be completed in fall 2027.
