Eastbound and westbound I-70 from 78th Street to I-635 will have overnight lane closures for resurfacing and pavement marking work beginning on Monday, May 5, weather permitting, through early June 2014, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation.
This resurfacing and pavement marking project is resuming work after the 2013 winter shutdown period.
Traffic will be directed through the project work zone via signage and cones. There may be one or two lanes closed and varying ramp closures on I-70 during the overnight closures that are scheduled to take place between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. As well, there may be some daytime lane closures as needed.
Updated daily traffic information for this project and for all of the Kansas City metro area can be viewed online, round the clock at: www.ksdot.org/kcmetro/laneclose.asp.
The Kansas Department of Transportation urges all motorists to be alert, obey the warning signs, and slow down when approaching and driving through the project work zone.
