The Kansas Department of Transportation has announced the dates for its regional “2023 Local Consult” meetings held throughout the state. These gatherings are designed for open discussion between KDOT officials and the public to determine project prioritization across Kansas and are an important step in gathering public input for the IKE program – the state’s current 10-year transportation improvement program. They are the best opportunity all Kansans have to provide input on regional priorities for future projects.
Calvin Reed, P.E., secretary of transportation director, Kansas Turnpike Authority, invites you to participate in the “2023 Local Consult” process. You’ll have an opportunity to share your region’s transportation priorities, hear about investments being made in transportation in your area, and learn about various grant funding programs available through KDOT.
Please try to attend one of the following meetings below, or take part in the virtual meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 24 and let KDOT know how you feel about the transportation system in Kansas. A special note to Washington and Marshall County residents: This is your opportunity to voice your concerns regarding the Highway 36-Highway 99 junction or to thank KDOT for the rumble strips south of Hanover. I have heard more from constituents regarding these two areas than any other highway issues in District 106-Marshall, Washington, Republic and Jewell counties.
Northeast, District 1: 9 a.m. to Noon, Tuesday, Oct. 3 at Four Points by Sheraton, Manhattan
Northwest, District 3: 9 a.m. to Noon, Tuesday, Oct. 10 at Hilton Garden Inn, Hays
North Central, District 2: 9 a.m. to Noon, Wednesday, Oct. 11 at Hilton Garden Inn, Salina
