Work will begin Monday on a bridge replacement on K-140 Highway, approximately 3.46 miles east of the Ellsworth/Saline County Line within the city of Brookville. The existing bridge will be removed and replaced with a new bridge.

Traffic will be reduced to one lane controlled by traffic signals. There will be a lane width restriction of 12 feet.

Current plans call for the construction of the new bridge to be completed in late November, weather permitting.

Reece Construction Co. Inc. of Scandia is the prime contractor for this project, which has a total cost of $643,392.46.

The project is funded through T-WORKS. For more information concerning the T-works program and specific projects, visit the T-works web site at www.ksdot.org/tworks.
