GIRARD, Kan. — The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) plans to start work on adjoining K-47 resurfacing projects in Neosho and Crawford counties the week of July 17. The 18-mile project area runs between the west city limits of St. Paul and the west city limits of Girard.
Project activity includes a pavement surface recycle and asphalt overlay.
The contractor plans to begin at Girard and work west to St. Paul, and then turn and work east toward Girard. Flaggers and a pilot car will direct one-lane traffic through the work zone during daylight hours. Drivers can expect delays of 15 minutes or less.
KDOT awarded Bettis Asphalt & Construction of Topeka the construction contracts totaling $5.3 million. The work should be completed by mid-November, weather permitting.
