(KAIR)--Construction was set to start Tuesday in Wathena where a sidewalk and retaining wall are being installed.
According to a release from the City of Wathena, the project will run from 2nd and Mill Streets to East St. Joseph Street, with the construction to last approximately 30 business days.
Due to the construction, the City notes, it's "necessary to block lanes of Highway 36 in order to complete the sidewalk project,” which is being installed "for the safety of residents, children and pedestrians traveling along the highway in the area."
The City asks residents, and others, to be patient while the work is conducted.
