A guardrail improvement project is underway on U.S. 59 in Atchison County. Work will occur at various locations from two miles north of Nortonville to Atchison.

According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, intermittent lane reductions may occur where the contractor is working. Flaggers will direct traffic at those times. Delays to motorists should be minimal.

Work will take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours and is expected to be complete by early February 2023.

J & J Contractors Inc., of Iola, is the prime contractor on the $1.6 million project.

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 highway construction projects across Kansas, go to www.kandrive.org or call 5-1-1.
