(MSC News)--On Monday, March 27, work will begin on a City of Leavenworth intersection improvement project at U.S. 73/K-7 (4th Street) and Marion Street Leavenworth (Leavenworth County). Project work includes installation of new traffic signals and pedestrian crossings.
Beginning Monday, northbound and southbound U.S. 73/K-7 (4th Street) will be reduced to one lane in each direction with limited left turn movements at the intersection. In addition, for approximately 3-4 weeks during the project, Marion Street on the east side of the intersection will be closed to all traffic. Marion Street traffic will follow a marked detour via Spruce Street. There will be a 12-foot lane width restriction on U.S. 73/K-7 through the project work zone throughout the duration of the project.
Drivers should expect minor delays during the daytime work. Traffic will be guided through the project work zone via channelizers and signage.
Gunter Construction Company (Kansas City, KS) is the primary contractor on this $485,000 intersection project. The entire project is scheduled to be completed in early June 2017, weather permitting.
