(KAIR)--Intersection improvement work in Jefferson County will mean a minor setback for motorists when the work begins March 28th. 

According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, the project, at the Jefferson/Shawnee County line, means that access from 46th Street to and from K-4 on the west side of the intersection only will be closed beginning on that date. The closure is expected to last through fall. 

According to KDOT the project will include the realignment of the west half of the existing K-4 and 46th Street intersection.
