The Kansas Turnpike is undertaking a project to repave the entire stretch of roadway from Topeka to Kansas City, the most heavily traveled portion of the 236-mile turnpike. Although this is a major project and everyone is looking forward to its final completion, the KTA does not plan to replace the last section of roadway, from mileposts 202 to 210, until 2002. KTA just finished with the roadway replacement between mileposts 184 and 189 in last October. This project is time consuming and difficult because the original concrete has to be removed and the new roadway pavement completely rebuilt.
