On Tuesday, May 6, the Kansas Department of Transportation plans to close K-39 between the east K-3 junction and the K-7 junction in Bourbon County.
The intersection at K-39/K-7 is being reconstructed during the closure, which is expected to remain in effect through late June. Traffic will follow a signed detour on K-3, K-47, K-7, U.S. 69 and U.S. 54.
The intersection reconstruction is the first phase of the tied K-7 pavement rehabilitation and widening projects from Girard northeast to U.S. 69. KDOT awarded the K-7 construction contracts totaling $20.4 million to APAC-Kansas Inc., Shears Division, Hutchinson.
K-7 traffic will not be affected during this phase.
