I-435 bridge joint replacement project begins in Wyandotte County

A joint replacement project began Monday for the Riverview Road Bridge over I-435 and another project starts next Tuesday on southbound I-435 bridge over Wolcott Road in Wyandotte County.
Work is taking place on the project during daylight hours on the weekdays with some Saturday work.
The Riverview Avenue Bridge over I-435 was clos…ed to all traffic on Monday for joint replacement work. A marked detour is being provided. Traffic will detour on 102nd Street and 98th Street to Kansas Avenue to cross back over I-435. Project work is scheduled to be completed by late March 2014.
Beginning at 9 a.m. March 18 through mid-April 2014, southbound I-435 over the Wolcott Road Bridge will be reduced to one open lane just north of K-5 around the clock.
Sometime in mid-April 2014, southbound I-435 over the Wolcott Road Bridge will be reduced to two open lanes, one additional lane will be reopened, throughout the duration of the project.
