I-70 guard fence updates among list of approved February lettings

Guard fence along I-70 in Sherman County. 

Updating guard fence at 10 different locations along I-70 in Sherman County is one of the projects that was approved in KDOT’s February letting.

This work will take place roughly between milepost 12 and milepost 17. Projects have been completed east and west of this section in the last 20 years and guard fence was upgraded as a result. This project will improve guard fence on the remaining five-mile section.

The upgrade will involve constructing a concrete barrier wall to protect a bridge pier at one location as well as guard fence and grading at the other locations. Smoky Hill LLC of Salina is the contractor on the $554,000 project.
