Geary County has been awarded a bridge construction project for replacing the existing bridge on Old Milford Road, approximately 0.8 miles west of the US-77 / Old Milford Road intersection. It is just east of Rolling Meadows Golf Course. The contractor will be Bayer Construction Co. Inc. from Manhattan, Kansas. The contract amount of $698,499.00 of Federal Funds have been allocated to pay for this construction.
Old Milford Road will be closed to thru traffic beginning December 2, 2024 and is proposed not to reopen to unrestricted traffic flow until early April 2025.
The official detour will route north bound Old Milford Road traffic north on US-77 to K-57, then west on K-57 to Old Milford Road. Old Milford Road South Bound traffic will follow this detour in reverse.
Detour traffic signs will be installed before construction begins
