Improvements will include a reconstructed interchange at I-35, new bridges, pavement widening/reconstruction, roadway realignments/extensions, access control, signal installation, median construction, streetlights, sidewalks, and all other work necessary to complete the project. As part of the project, the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) will add auxiliary lanes to I-35 from Santa Fe to 119th Street, pavement reconstruction along I-35 and widening of the Old 56 Bridge over I-35 to accommodate 2 lanes.
This presentation will provide Council an update on the utility relocations, tentative construction timelines, and tentative construction phases.
Construction for the work being completed by KDOT is tentatively scheduled to begin in late 2026. The interchange and Santa Fe corridor work being completed by the City of Olathe is tentatively scheduled to begin in late 2027.
