Two K-10 ramps in Lawrence are scheduled to close next week for work on the Kansas Department of Transportation’s South Lawrence Trafficway (SLT) expansion project.

Beginning Monday, Feb. 16, the U.S. 40/6^th Street ramp onto eastbound K-10 and the eastbound K-10 exit ramp to Bob Billings Parkway will close until late May.

During the closures, the detour for both ramps will direct motorists to 6th Street, Wakarusa Drive and Bob Billings Parkway. Drivers can follow the marked detour or use alternate routes. Message boards and signage will be in place to alert and direct motorists.  

All project work and traffic changes are conditions permitting and subject to change.

More information about the SLT project can be found at ksdot.gov/SLT.

KDOT urges motorists to stay alert and follow posted signs in all work zones. For current road conditions, visit KanDrive.gov or call 511. For updates on highway projects in northeast Kansas, visit ksdot.gov/NortheastNews.
