(KNZA)--A Kansas Department of Transportation bridge repair project is underway on U.S. 73 in Brown County.

The project is about 4 miles north of Horton near 150th Street.

The work zone was reduced to one lane, and traffic crossing the bridge will be controlled by temporary traffic signals, beginning March 17th.

Drivers should plan for delays of up to 10 minutes.

There will also be a 10-foot width restriction through the work zone.

Work will take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours.

KDOT says Comanche Construction, of Olathe, is the prime contractor on the $622,00 project, which is expected to be complete in mid-August, conditions permitting.
