U.S. Highway 69 closures coming this month — Here’s where

Several drivers, walkers and bikers in Overland Park can expect some changes in their commutes or walks this month.

Continued work on U.S. Highway 69 throughout the winter will result in several lane, ramp and trail closures in Overland Park.

Here’s what to expect this month.

From 5 p.m. to 6 a.m. every night until Sunday, 143rd Street under U.S. Highway 69 will close in both directions for bridge construction.
The 103rd Street ramp onto southbound U.S. 69 will also close from 11 a.m. Wednesday to 6 a.m. Friday for construction material delivery.
From 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Wednesday and Thursday night, the westbound I-435 ramp at U.S. 69 and the northbound U.S. 69 ramp onto I-435 will close for bridge work — as well as the eastbound I-435 left lane.
The southbound U.S. 69 ramp onto College Boulevard will close overnight too on Thursday and Friday night.

From 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays from Dec. 11 through Dec. 22, the following areas will close:

Alternating southbound lanes on U.S. 69 from135th Street to 143rd Street for truck access
