Resurfacing has begun on U.S. 36 and K-112 in Jewell County

Friday the Kansas Department of Transportation began resurfacing about 11 miles on U.S. 36 and K-112 in Jewell County.

Work on U.S. 36 began at the Smith-Jewell County line and continue east for about 8.5 miles to the West K-128/U.S. 36 junction. Work on K-112 will begin at the K-112/U.S. 36 junction and continue north about 2.5 miles to the south city limits of Esbon.

Flaggers and a pilot car will direct traffic through the construction zone. Drivers should be prepared for a delay of up to 15 minutes and plan extra time in their travel schedules.

APAC-Kansas Inc. of Hutchinson is the prime contractor and has scheduled this $644,457 project to be completed in mid-October, weather permitting.

KDOT urges all motorists to be alert and obey the warning signs when approaching and driving through a highway work zone. To stay aware of all highway construction projects across Kansas, go to http://www.kandrive.org or call 5-1-1.
