Traffic control for the Reconstruction of South Vine Street Project will change on Tuesday, November 1, 2022.  During the next phase of construction, traffic north of 8th Street will be moved from the outside to the inside lanes.  As such, all traffic on Vine Street within the construction zone will be carried on the new pavement in the center of Vine Street, one-lane in each direction.  

Also, the intersection of 8th and Vine will reopen to westbound traffic and will be open to all traffic movements.  

Access to all businesses will remain open but may be restricted at times as temporary entrances are constructed.

Phase 1, Step 1

22-05-09 Traffic Control Visual 2The reconstruction of Vine Street south of 13th Street began on Monday, May 9, 2022.  This KDOT project will replace the pavement on US-183 from the south city limit at the intersection with the US-183 By-pass to a point 350 feet south of the intersection with 13th Street, that point being just south of the McDonalds entrance.

The first phase of this project will reduce traffic to one lane in each direction in the outside lanes, while the inside lanes are being reconstructed.  During this phase of construction, there will no left turns allowed.  Access to all businesses will remain but will be restricted to right-in/right-out movements.  Also, during this phase, east/west traffic on 8th Street will be blocked allowing only right turns to and from Vine at 8th Street.  A traffic control map showing the configuration is attached.  Signage will be in place to direct the traveling public.
