Scope of Work
Study to identify an improvment concept(s) for I-235 from Kellogg to Central, including the two interchanges.

Project Description
The Kansas Department of Transportation, in partnership with the city of Wichita, Sedgwick County, and the Wichita Area Metropolitan Planning Organization, has begun a new study of the I-235 corridor from the US-54/400 (Kellogg) interchange north to the Central Avenue interchange. The 18-month study will include both interchanges and will identify ways to improve the driving experience along I-235. The study will address high levels of weaving at the Kellogg and Central interchanges and congestion on I-235. It will also look at conditions along Kellogg and Central near I-235. The study will identify alternative improvement concepts, cost estimates, and a phasing plan for short and long-term improvements. Recommendations could include new infrastructure and changes to the existing infrastructure along I-235, Kellogg, and Central.
