I-35 bridge project to start next week

The Kansas Department of Transportation plans Monda to start a deck resurfacing and column repair project at the Interstate 35 bridge over 15th Street in Ottawa.

I-35 traffic will be reduced to one lane on both the north and southbound lanes at the bridge. The project should be finished by early autumn, weather permitting.

KDOT awarded the $416,000 construction contract to PCI Roads, of Topeka. Drivers are reminded to slow down and use caution in the work zone.
