KDOT changes weekend closure plans for I-135 in Wichita
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) has updated its construction plans for Interstate 135 in north Wichita, scaling back a full weekend closure that was originally scheduled. Flooded in Butler County? Here's how to report damage Southbound I-135 will still close this weekend for pavement patching and barrier wall adjustments, but northbound lanes will remain open — a change from earlier announcements. The updated plan means that starting at 5 a.m. Saturday, June 7, southbound I-135 will close from the K-254 interchange to just past the K-96 interchange. Several ramps will also be closed, including: Westbound K-96 to southbound I-135 K-254 to southbound I-135 The loop ramp from southbound I-235 to North Broadway All affected lanes and ramps are expected to reopen by Sunday afternoon, June 8. A full closure of I-135 in both directions is now expected next weekend, on Saturday, June 14, to allow for additional pavement work and a bridge deck pour, weather permitting. Motorists are advised to follow posted detour signs, allow extra travel time, and use caution in the work zone. For real-time traffic updates, visit or call 5-1-1. KDOT says this change in schedule is meant to minimize traffic disruption while allowing construction crews to continue needed repairs.
