(KMZA)--A resurfacing project began Monday on a nearly 22-mile combined total stretch of U.S. 77 and U.S. 24 Highways in Marshall and Riley Counties.
Beginning Monday, northbound and southbound U.S. 77 was reduced to one lane for both directions as crews begin work at the K-16 junction in Riley County and head north to the west K-9 junction in Marshall County. Once work is completed on U.S. 77, crews will then complete work on U.S. 24 from the west U.S. 77 junction to the east U.S. 77 junction in Riley County.
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 maximum and are encouraged to use alternate routes, if possible.
Vance Brothers, of Kansas City, Missouri, is the primary contractor on the more than $700,000 project. The project is to be completed in early September, weather allowing.
