<a>On Monday, September 9, the Kansas Department of Transportation plans to begin work to replace McDowell Creek bridge over I-70 in Geary County.</a>

During construction, traffic on I-70 will be reduced to one lane at a reduced speed through the work zone and all ramps to access I-70 at this location will remain open.

This project will include closing McDowell Creek Road over I-70 for complete bridge deck replacement. Cross traffic at this location may enter I-70 and proceed to the next interchange (Exit 311 or Exit 304) before returning to Exit 307 and proceeding on McDowell Creek Road.

Construction will include occasional temporary closing, during the day, on I-70 under the bridge deck and traffic will be directed to reroute through construction using the ramps at a reduced speed.

King Construction Co. Inc., of Hesston is the prime contractor for this $1.196 million project which is scheduled for completion in May of 2025, weather permitting.
