About the Green Project
Work on the I-235 Green Project began on March 11, 2019 and was completed November 24, 2021.

• Replacement of aging pavement
• Auxiliary lanes on I-235
• Permanent removal of the Seneca St. bridge
• A rebuild of the Broadway Interchange
• Replacement of the bridges over the Little Arkansas River
• Replacement of the bridges over Broadway
Coming Soon
• All lanes of traffic and ramps are open.

A glimpe at the recent past: Southbound I-235 traffic is no longer on these lanes and northbound lanes are fully open.
Dirt work and concrete pavement placement is now a thing of the past. All three lanes of SB I-235 are open (plus the SB I-235 ramps at Broadway).
A bridge pour on a new bridge over the Little Arkansas River was successfully completed in spite of distant lightning. Traffic is now using the new bridge.
The Seneca Street bridge over I-235 was removed and will not be replaced. Businesses and residents now have access from N. Meridian Avenue.
