(KAIR)--Planned construction will mean the need for an alternate route in Doniphan County on Tuesday.

According to a news release from the Kansas Department of Transportation, K-120 Highway, about a half-mile south of the K-120/U.S. Highway 36 junction, will be closed to traffic for most of the day on Tuesday.

The closure is planned to go into effect at 9:00 Tuesday morning, leaving K-120 closed from south of U.S. 36 to north of the city of Severance.

According to the news release, motorists will need to U.S. 36, K-7, K-20, and K-120, as an alternate route during the closure.

The closure is due to a pipe replacement project.

Work is dependent on weather.
