The left two lanes of northbound and southbound I-35 at the Mission Road exit will be closed on Thursday, May 7, and Friday, May 8, for power line work, weather permitting, according to the Kansas Department of Transportation.

Work will take place from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

At 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. Thursday, May 7, all lanes on I-35 will be closed for three minutes using rolling roadblocks, according to a KDOT spokesman. The Kansas Highway Patrol will assist with the rolling roadblocks.

Traffic will be controlled by using KC Scout message boards, arrow boards and traffic cones, according to the spokesman.

The KDOT spokesman urged all motorists to be alert and obey the warning signs when approaching and driving through a highway work zone.
