( KNZA )--A resurfacing project on a nearly 12 mile stretch of U.S. 36 in Brown County is now set to begin Monday, weather permitting.
The highway will be resurfaced from the west city limits of Hiawatha to the Nemaha/Brown County line.
The project had been set to start this week, but was pushed back due to the weather for a second time.
Beginning Monday, KDOT says U.S. 36 will be reduced to one lane as crews begin work at the west city limits of Hiawatha and then progress west.
Traffic will be directed through the project work zone via a pilot car and flagger operation. Drivers should expect delays of up to 15 minutes and are encouraged to use alternate routes, if possible.
Hall Brothers of Marysville is the primary contractor on the nearly $1.7 million project, which is scheduled for completion in early July, weather permitting.
