Highway 36 Travel is Not Recommended

The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) is recommending an alternate route for travelers wishing to travel on US Highway 36 through northeast Kansas until July 1st. US-36 is not recommended as an alternate route through northeast Kansas due to existing construction projects and lane closures.

The recommended route through northeast Kansas for this weekend is as follows:

• For southbound travelers into Kansas: Take US-75 south to K-20 east to US-73 east to K-7 north to US-36 east.

• For northbound/westbound travelers into Nebraska/Kansas from Missouri: take US-36 west to K-7 south to US-73 west to K-20 west to US-75 north.
