(KMZA)--An improvement project began Monday on a portion of U.S. 36 Highway in Marysville.
The Kansas Department of Transportation says the project will take place on a three-tenths of a mile stretch of U.S. 36 from 17th Street to east of the Marysville Surf Hotel.
On one portion, the work will consist of milling 2-inches of the existing pavement followed by a new 2-inch asphalt overlay. On the other half of the project, the work will consist of subgrade compaction followed by all new asphalt pavement. In addition, all curb and gutters, driveways, entrances and sidewalks will be replaced throughout the project area.
The work will take place during the daylight hours, Monday through Friday, with some occasional Saturday work.
KDOT says traffic will be reduced to one lane for both directions through the project work zone. Traffic will be directed through the work zone by barricades, cones and signage. There will be a 20 mile per hour posted speed limit through the work zone.
Amino Brothers, of Kansas City, Kansas is the primary contractor on the nearly $1.2 million project.
The project is scheduled for completion in late September, weather allowing.
