Summary

Public Works Director Kevin Manning said Midland Drive is expected to reopen next week after a Kansas Department of Transportation bridge redecking project; Shawnee Mission Parkway mill-and-overlay work will begin with early stormwater pipe repairs and limited lane closures.

Public Works Director Kevin Manning told the City of Shawnee council on Aug. 11 that Midland Drive is expected to reopen next week with the conclusion of a Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) bridge redecking project.

Manning also said the Shawnee Mission Parkway mill-and-overlay project is beginning. Early work on the Parkway will focus on stormwater pipe repair and replacement; crews will maintain at least one open lane in each direction but motorists should expect some lane closures.

The transcript includes an unclear phrasing about the KDOT project (the recording lists it as “4 35 bridal redecking”). The article uses the likely intended agency name and location (KDOT and I‑435 bridge redecking) but flags the transcript wording as garbled and recommends verification with the city for the precise project name and route prior to republication.
