(KMZA)--Work began Tuesday along a section of K-9 Highway in Centralia.

The Kansas Department of Transportation says the project consists of curb, gutter and storm sewer improvements between 3rd and 6th Streets.

KDOT says traffic impacts should be minimal, with most project activity taking place along the roadway- shoulder. Occasional lane closures may occur in the area. Flaggers will direct traffic when necessary.

Work will take place Monday through Friday during daylight hours and is expected to be complete by April 2025.

Ebert Construction Co., of Wamego, is the contractor on the $1 million project.
