(KAIR)--A bridge replacement project is set to start Wednesday in Atchison County. According to the Kansas Department of Transportation, the existing two pipes of the U.S 159 Bridge over Little Stranger Creek will be replaced with a new double barrell, 16-foot by 10-foot by 107-foot reinforced concrete box. The bridge is located about 5 miles west and north of the east K-9 junction. Work is planned to take place during daylight hours through the duration of the project. Beginning Wednesday, traffic control will be put in place. On Thursday, both the northbound and southbound lanes over the bridge will be closed to all traffic, with a marked detour route being put in place. A map is posted with this story at mscnews.net. Ebert Construction Company, of Wamego, is the primary contractor for the near $687,000 project. Work is expected to wrap up in July.
