Although Shawnee Mission Medical Center will still be easily accessible, advance message boards will alert drivers to the ramp closure and a marked detour will be provided. Northbound I-35 traffic will detour either via eastbound 67th Street to southbound Antioch Road to 75th Street, or via eastbound 87th Street to northbound Antioch Road to 75th Street. In addition, drivers may choose to travel on Frontage Road.
Updated daily traffic information for this project can be viewed online at ksdot.org/kcmetro/laneclose.asp.
