Beginning March 28, part of K-177 will close for the second phase of reconstruction. During this phase, K-177 will be closed for approximately 13.5 miles from halfway between the K-4 junctions, continuing north to Interstate 70.
Both K-4 junctions will be kept open until around August, weather permitting, at which time they will be closed as reconstruction nears completion.
Through traffic can follow the state detour from Council Grove to Herington to Junction City (See attached map). K-177 is scheduled to reopen in October 2023, weather permitting.
Wildcat Construction Co. Inc. and Subsidiaries of Wichita is the primary contractor for this $52.3 million project.
