Ramp and lane closures will impact travel around the Interstate 435 and 87th Street Parkway interchange over the next several months as work continues on a major improvement project.
About the improvement project
Work began in summer 2021 on a series of improvements designed to improve safety and traffic flow at the I-435 and 87th Street Parkway interchange. These improvements include:
- Additional through lanes and turn lanes on 87th Street Parkway between Maurer Road and Renner Boulevard
- Additional lanes on the interstate ramps
- 10-foot-wide trails along both sides of 87th Street Parkway
- New storm sewer system
- New traffic signal at the 87th Street Parkway and northbound I-435 exit ramp
The City of Lenexa received more than $3 million in federal funds for this project, which is expected to cost around $8.4 million.
The project is expected to be complete in late 2022. For questions, call 913.477.7500.
