Traffic changes starting tomorrow on K-10/SLT project

Post Date:06/23/2026 4:52 PM

Traffic changes are expected to begin in areas of the Kansas Department of Transportation’s K-10/South Lawrence Trafficway (SLT) project. Starting tomorrow, June 24, the following changes will occur:

  • The U.S. 40/6th Street ramp onto westbound K-10 will close until November for project work. Drivers can follow the marked detour on 6th Street, Wakarusa Drive and Bob Billings Parkway or find an appropriate alternative route.
  • The U.S. 40/6th Street ramp onto eastbound K-10 and the eastbound K-10 exit ramp to Bob Billings Parkway will reopen. The ramps have been closed since February for work on the new eastbound K-10 alignment.
  • Traffic between the U.S. 40/6th Street and Bob Billings Parkway interchanges will also be shifted to one lane in each direction on the newly finished eastbound lanes. 

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

More information about the SLT project is available 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.
