The Kansas Department of Transportation will close two lanes of southbound I-35 between Johnson Drive and Antioch Road on Saturday, Aug. 19, to replace a message board, a spokesman said. The closure will begin at 6 a.m.
The inside lane of northbound I-35 and the Antioch Road southbound on-ramp will be closed during this time as well.
During this period, at approximately 7 a.m. a full closure of southbound I-35 will occur that will last only 10 minutes to remove the cross-road structure. Another full closure will occur at approximately 10 a.m. and last 10 minutes to replace the cross-road structure.
Motorists should use the Johnson Drive ramp to access southbound I-35 during this time, according to the spokesman.

Motorists are asked to use extra caution in the work zone area.
