U.S. 400 traffic restricted west of Beaumont
Traffic on U.S. 400 near Beaumont, in Butler County, has been restricted to one lane
controlled by traffic signals.
The location is about 2.6 miles west of Beaumont at Tallgrass Road. Motorists there should
be prepared to slow down and stop for the signals and should expect delays of up to five
minutes.
The restriction is due to the need to replace a culvert. KDOT is creating plans and anticipates
a contracted replacement to begin within a month. It is not yet clear when the replacement
will be completed and full traffic flow can resume.
