(KAIR)--Atchison County is acknowledging the concerns of its citizens regarding the current state of gravel roads, but asks for patience as crews are at work to improve them.

That's according to a social media post made by Atchison County Road and Bridge, which states that the County wants "to ensure that our crews are out trying to make [the gravel roads] better," adding that "the county itself (not including township roads) is responsible for 156 miles of gravel alone."

The post closes by asking residents to "please be patient" as the County crews "get around to each road."

Residents with questions or concerns are directed to call 913-804-6120.
