(KNZA)--An agreement has been approved for a Doniphan County bridge project.
The Doniphan County Commission last week signed an agreement with the Kansas Department of Transportation for the replacement of a short-span bridge on 180th Road, northeast of Severance.
Under the agreement, KDOT will reimburse Doniphan County for 90 percent of the total cost up to $200,000, with the county responsible for the remaining 10 percent and additional costs above $200,000.
The funding will come through KDOT's Local Bridge Improvement Program.
A construction start date hasn't been announced.
The Commission also signed an agreement with KDOT that would provide funds for the repair of roads and bridges on the Federal-Aid Highway System that suffered serious damage from natural disasters.
Under the agreement, federal funds will pay 100 percent of emergency repairs made within 180 days of the actual occurrence a natural disaster or catastrophic failure.
For work performed after 180 days, the federal share paid to Doniphan County for reimbursement will be 80 percent.
Two projects qualify for federal-aid reimbursement. The first is the replacement of culverts, road material and guardrail on Ash Point Road, north of 240th Road. The second project is the reinforcement of a wing wall on a bridge located at 245th and Ottumwa Roads.
