(KMZA)--A Kansas Department of Transportation resurfacing project is expected to begin on K-16 in Pottawatomie County on Wednesday, Aug. 2, conditions permitting. The project covers about 19 miles, from the K-63 junction to K-99 in Blaine.

The contractor will begin at K-63 and resurface the eastbound lane to K-99. Once complete, they will return to K-63 and work on the westbound lane to K-99. Work will be done in smaller sections to reduce impact to motorists.

The roadway will be reduced to one lane when work is taking place, and traffic will be directed by a pilot car and flaggers. The work zone will also have a 10-foot width restriction. Drivers should plan for delays of up to 15 minutes.

Work will occur during daylight hours Monday through Friday, and Saturdays as needed. It is expected to be complete by late September.

Dustrol Inc., of Towanda, is the contractor on the $2.7 million project.

KDOT urges all motorists to be alert and obey the warning signs when approaching and driving through a highway work zone. To stay aware of highway construction projects across Kansas, go to www.kandrive.org or call 5-1-1.
