( KNZA )-Highway resurfacing projects are set to begin Monday in Atchison and Brown Counties, weather permitting.

In Atchison County, the project includes U.S. 73 from about 3 ½ miles north of the Atchison/Leavenworth County line to the Atchison city limits, and K-74 from the city of Potter to the junction with U.S. 73.

Beginning Monday, the Kansas Department of Transportation says traffic on K-74 will be reduced to one lane as crews begin work at the city of Potter and move east. Once work on K-74 is finished, crews will then move to U.S. 73 to complete the resurfacing work.

Traffic will be directed through the project work zone via a pilot car and flagger operation.

Hamm Inc., of Perry, is the primary contractor on the more than one million dollar project which is scheduled for completion in early July, weather permitting.

In Brown County, a nearly 12 mile stretch of U.S. 36 will be resurfaced from the west city limits of Hiawatha to the Nemaha/Brown County line.

Beginning Monday, KDOT says traffic will be reduced to one lane as crews begin work at the west city limits of Hiawatha and progress west along U.S. 36.
