The Kansas Department of Transportation, along with the U.S. DOT Federal Highway Administration and the City of Wichita, are hosting a public to unveil design concepts for the K-96 corridor between I-135 and I-35. The meeting will take place from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Thursday, at the National Center for Aviation Training, 4004 N. Webb Road in Wichita. That's building 300 at Colonel James Jabara Airport, WSU Tech.
Attendees can review proposed design concepts for the K-96 corridor, which include expanding the highway from four to six lanes, replacing pavement and improving seven interchanges along K-96 at Hillside Street, Oliver, N. Woodlawn Boulevard., N. Rock Road, N. Webb Road, Greenwich Road and E. 21st Street N.
In addition to design concepts, the design team is also exploring the environmental review to assess environmental, economic and social impacts.
