In Overland Park, southbound U.S. 69 will be fully closed from I-35 to 103rd Street from Monday, Nov. 10 through Friday, Nov. 14, from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m., nightly, conditions permitting. This closure also includes the southbound U.S. 69 entrance ramps from 87th Street and 95th Street.

These overnight closures are necessary for overhead sign installation and pavement work. This work is part of the Kansas Department of Transportation U.S. 69 Corridor Modernization and Expansion Project (69Express). 

During the closures, a detour route for traffic will be marked as follows:

• Southbound I-35 traffic will be directed to continue south on I-35 to the I-35/I-435 interchange, then use the eastbound I-435 ramp. Continue east on I-435 to use the southbound U.S. 69 ramp.

The 69Express project includes reconstruction of U.S. 69, widening the highway with added express lanes – one in each direction between 151^st and 103^rd Streets – and interchange improvements at U.S. 69/167^th Street in Overland Park.

All current U.S. 69 corridor construction and closure information is available on the 69Express project website, www.69express.org. For additional information, members of the public can get regular construction updates on the project on Facebook and X pages and by subscribing to the project newsletter and signing up to receive text message alerts.
