Kansas transportation officials said an exit ramp from Highway 54 in Wichita will be closing for a three-month period for construction and repairs.

The exit ramp from westbound Highway 54 (Kellogg) to southbound I-135 will close starting Monday, September 30th.   The closing will allow for work on a project that will involve milling, patching and a concrete overlay being placed on each side consecutively.

Motorists should follow the signed detour on northbound I-135 to exit 6B and 2nd Street, then turn left on southbound I-135 to west Kellogg exit 6A.

This is the last phase of the bridge rehabilitation project taking this year at the I-135/U.S. 54 interchange. The work is set to conclude by late December, conditions permitting.

During construction, motorists are advised to stay alert and watch out for construction workers.
