WB I-435 to southbound U.S. 69 ramp closure and northbound U.S. 69 to westbound I-435 ramp closure. Detours marked in orange and blue.

On two consecutive nights during the last week of November, parts of I-435 will be closed for bridge girder setting on U.S. 69. Closures will be in effect both nights but will slightly vary. The following locations will be impacted:

• Eastbound I-435 at U.S. 69 – fully closed and partial lane closures
• Westbound I-435 at U.S. 69 – fully closed and partial lane closures
• Eastbound I-435 ramp to northbound U.S. 69 – fully closed
• Northbound U.S. 69 ramp to westbound I-435 – fully closed
• Westbound I-435 ramp to southbound U.S. 69 – fully closed
• 103rd Street ramp to southbound U.S. 69 – fully closed

Detours will be marked. Eastbound traffic will be directed south on U.S. 69 to College Blvd. Traffic will then head east on College Blvd. to northbound U.S. 69 back to eastbound I-435.

Westbound traffic will be routed to northbound U.S. 69 to 103rd Street. Traffic will then be directed westbound on 103rd Street to southbound U.S. 69 back to westbound I-435.

103rd Street traffic will be routed to westbound I-435 to the Quivira Road exit. Drivers will be routed southbound on Quivira Road back to eastbound I-435. More information will be available on the project website closer to the start date of the closure. Sign up for text alerts to receive the latest information.



Construction Updates

Welcome to the work zone!

Concrete batch plant inside the WB 135th Street to northbound U.S. 69 loop ramp

Two ramps at 135th Street have now reopened as planned for the holiday season. Work on the 135th Street loop ramp to northbound U.S. 69 and the northbound U.S. 69 to 135th Street off-ramp concluded last Wednesday, Nov. 15. Additionally, the 135th to southbound U.S. 69 on-ramp will reopen by Monday, Nov. 20, resuming access to southbound U.S. 69 from 135th Street.

Bridge demolition will begin just north of 135th Street at the Tomahawk Creek Trail. For public safety, parts of the trail will remain closed throughout the duration of construction in this area. See the Overland Park trail closure map to see adjacent trails and detour routes.

Aerial view of construction at Blue Valley Parkway

The photo above shows construction of the future flyover ramp from Blue Valley Parkway to southbound U.S. 69. This ramp will replace the current configuration, allowing travelers from Blue Valley Parkway the option to enter U.S. 69 southbound on the right side or allow direct access into the express lane for drivers who wish to use it.

Bridge work over the Indian Creek Trail

The aerial photo above shows paving and bridge work that crews are completing over the Indian Creek Trail approaching 119th Street. Hikers and bikers please note: the trail is closed at this location for your safety. Please take the detour route. For more information see the Overland Park trail map.
