(KAIR)--The Kansas Department of Transportation, Tuesday, plans to resume work on a 14-mile U.S. Highway 59 crack sealing project which extends from the Atchison/Jefferson county line to the southern city limit of Atchison.

According to KDOT, traffic will be restricted to one lane and directed by a pilot car and flaggers where crews are actively working, with drivers told to plan for delays of up to 15 minutes.

Work will take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours and is expected to be complete by the end of this month, conditions permitting.

Pavement Pro's, LLC, of McPherson, is the prime contractor on the $70,000 project.
