In between winter storms, Kansas highway crews are working on fixing potholes, according to a spokesman for the Kansas Department of Transportation.
Some of the potholes are being repaired with a cold patch, while other potholes are being repaired with spray patching. Spray patching requires temperatures over 50 degrees.
A KDOT spokesman said lane closures are put into place for this slow-moving mobile operation.
Lane closures in Wyandotte County will include:
• Eastbound and westbound I-70 from 38th Street to the Kansas-Missouri state line will have varying lane closures between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 12, with project work completed on Jan. 12.
• Northbound and southbound I-435 from the Kansas River to the Missouri River will be reduced to one open lane, one direction at a time, for cold patch pavement repair work through a mobile operation on Tuesday through Friday, Jan. 10 through 13, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. Project work will be scheduled for completion on Friday, Jan. 13.
• Northbound and southbound I-635 between Merriam Drive to the Missouri River will be reduced to two open lanes, one direction at a time, for cold patch pavement repair work. The roadwork will be from Tuesday to Wednesday, Jan. 10 to 11, between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. The project work is scheduled to be completed on Wednesday, Jan. 11.
There may be commuting delays, according to KDOT.
