The Kansas Department of Transportation has temporarily closed K-14 in Rice County due to a sinkhole. The sinkhole is in Lyons between 2nd and 3rd streets.

According to KDOT Great Bend Maintenance Superintendent Mitch Jenkins, the highway is closed on the north side of Lyons between the U.S. 56/K-96 junction and the K-14/K-4 junction.

KDOT staff is working to determine how long it will take to repair the sinkhole and open the highway.

KDOT will provide more information as it becomes available.
