(KAIR)--Atchison motorists, this week, will need to use an alternative route, due to work planned on a portion of the city’s Main Street.

According to a release from the City of Atchison, the street, between 9th and 10th Streets, will be closed, beginning Tuesday, June 23, to allow Kansas Gas Service crews to install a new gas main.

It’s planned that the street will reopen by the end of the business day Thursday.
