Sections of K-15, U.S. 166 and U.S. 77 in Cowley County will be resurfaced starting around June 23.
The Kansas Department of Transportation project involves a milling and hot-mix-asphalt overlay on the following locations in Cowley County:
–K-15 from the Oklahoma/Kansas state line to the U.S. 166 junction.
–U.S. 166 from the U.S. 77 junction to the Chautauqua/Cowley county line.
The length of those two sections is about 36 miles.
–U.S. 77 at Arkansas City, from Summit Street to Madison Avenue. The length is almost a mile.
During the project, traffic will be controlled by flaggers and a pilot car. Motorists should expect to slow down and stop and face delays of up to 15 minutes.
The work is expected to be completed around Sept. 19.
Cornejo & Sons is the primary contractor for the $6.9 million project on K-15 and U.S. 166 and for the $248,775 project on U.S. 77.
