TOPEKA- Kansas is jumping the gun on road repairs and has no reason to slow down. The Kansas Department of Transportation will accelerate T-Works projects that were slated for 2013. A total of 32 projects will be advanced ahead of schedule, which Governor Brownback says will “create hundreds of construction jobs sooner than planned and provide an economic benefit to thousands of other Kansans and businesses.” Savings attained in recent projects are part of the reason KDOT can move forward. All of the projects are covered under the 10-year, $8 billion T-Works Transportation Program passed by the 2010 Legislature. You may view the list of projects to be advanced online at www.ksdot.org/tworks/.
