(KAIR)--A step forward for several Jefferson County-based projects, as the Kansas Department of Transportation approves bids for the work.

According to a release from KDOT, each of the three projects are focused on crack repair work on the roadways.

Of the three, one includes 13.6 miles of U.S. Highway 59, from the 98th Street junction north to the Jefferson/Atchison County line. The accepted bid was that of McPherson-based Pavement Pro's LLC, which came in at a cost of just over $116,836.

Another of the three crack repair projects includes K-92 Highway, from the Lovers Lane intersection inside the city of McLouth, stretching 5 1/2 miles northeast to the Jefferson/Leavenworth county line.
Pavement Pro, again, submitted the accepted bid of just over $57,185.

The same company will conduct the 18.3 miles of work on K-4 Highway, from the K-92 junction, northeast to the K-4/U.S. Highway 59 junction.
Cost of that work is just over $108,288.

The bid letting took place last month, in Topeka.

The timeline for the start of work on the Jefferson County projects is not immediately available.
