OSBORNE COUNTY, Kan. (KSNW) — A major road project is scheduled for more than three miles of U.S. Highway 281 in northern Kansas starting in January. The project is big enough that the Kansas Department of Transportation is holding a public open house about it on Oct. 21.
The project will reconstruct over three miles of U.S. 281 and replace the North Fork Solomon River bridge south of Portis in Osborne County.
KDOT’s open house about the project will be from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 21, at the Portis Community Center, 206 Market Street. During the open house, KDOT staff will provide a project overview and show the design plans and detour information.
Anyone needing special assistance or accommodation to attend the meeting should contact KDOT Public Information Officer Lisa Mussman at 785-874-8107 or [email protected]Â one week before the meeting date.
The project is part of KDOT’s Eisenhower Legacy Transportation Program.
