NORTON — The Kansas Department of Transportation will close a 6-mile portion of K-23 in Sheridan County starting Monday, March 31.

The closure is necessary for the reconstruction of the highway from County Road 70S (CR-406) north to Walnut Avenue in Hoxie. During construction, motorists will be directed to follow the state-route detour on I-70, U.S. 83 and U.S. 24.

KDOT expects the road to reopen in late October, conditions permitting.

Sporer Land Development of Oakley is the primary contractor for the $19 million project, which is part of KDOT’s Eisenhower Legacy Transportation Program, known as IKE.
