Work on the massive project at I-235 and Kellogg is expected to be completed in the summer of 2019.

Planning to use Kellogg near I-235 the first weekend of January? Better find an alternate route.

Weather permitting, the Kansas Department of Transportation plans to close all traffic on Kellogg under I-235 from Friday, Jan. 5, through Monday, Jan. 8. All traffic on I-235 over Kellogg also will be closed during that period.

Crews plan to install steel beams for the northbound I-235 ramp leading to westbound Kellogg.

Roads will begin to close around 5 p.m. Jan. 5, except for westbound Kellogg. It will begin closing about 7 p.m. Roads are expected to reopen no later than 6 a.m. Jan. 8.

Similar closures are scheduled for mid-January and early February.

The massive $116 million project at Kellogg and I-235 began in November 2015. It is expected to be completed in the summer of 2019.
