23rd Street traffic shifted onto new bridge between Haskell and Barker avenues
Eastbound and westbound traffic on 23rd Street — between Haskell Avenue and Barker Avenue — has been shifted onto a new bridge.
During construction of the bridge, 23rd Street traffic had been moved onto shoofly detours.
Two westbound lanes and one eastbound lane will be open on the bridge. Crews soon will begin to remove the shooflies and complete work on frontage roads on each side of the bridge.
Updated traffic information for the bridge replacement project is available at http://www.ksdot.org/topekametro/laneclose.asp.
