Motorists should expect traffic delays on Wednesday around East 14th Street and Haskell Avenue, Jeanette Klamm, management analyst for the city of Lawrence, said in a release.

Utility crews will be replacing a manhole ring and lid in the area, the release said. The streets will remain open during construction, but drivers should anticipate slower-than-normal traffic.

Crews will begin work around 9 a.m. and hope to finish before 5 p.m. Workers will be on site to help direct traffic.
