Pavement reconstruction on a three-mile stretch of US-56/US-77 north of Lincolnville will affect drivers as far south as Marion until mid-September.

According to Kansas Department of Transportation, drivers should expect delays of up to 15 minutes. Traffic from Marion to the Dickinson County line will be limited to a 10-foot width restriction. Traffic signals will direct drivers through the construction area starting five miles north of Lincolnville.

KDOT urges motorists to be alert and obey warning signs when driving through a work zone. More information is available from Ashley Tammen, north central Kansas public affairs manager at (785) 826-6799.
