The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) plans to start a field survey at two bridges on U.S. 75 in Wilson County the week of Oct. 3. The bridges span the Verdigris River and Verdigris River drainage. Both are approximately 2 miles east of the U.S. 400/U.S. 75 junction at Neodesha.

The survey area of 2,640 feet is based on the existing alignment. Survey crew members will gather information for future bridge repair projects. KDOT expects the survey to be complete by Dec. 15.

Activities include the use of survey instruments on the ground to determine locations of existing features within the corridor. A member of the survey crew will contact property owners or tenants for permission to enter private property. John Sommers of JEO will manage the survey for KDOT. Persons with questions may contact KDOT Public Affairs Manager Priscilla Petersen, (620) 902-6433.
