Description

The Kansas Department of Transportation is reevaluating the Northwest Expressway project, aiming to widen K-two-fifty-four from Maize to Goddard. This expansion, spanning twelve miles, could significantly benefit both cities, which have seen population growth from under 2,000 residents in 1990 to over 5,000 by 2020. The project, initially discussed in the early 2000s, is expected to be reviewed in a new feasibility study by next summer, assessing economic and environmental impacts and providing updated cost estimates. Local leaders anticipate increased economic development and reduced traffic on busy roads. Public feedback will be considered, and the projects next steps will depend on the studys findings.
