U.S. 54 Bridge Y.C, Posted For Weight Limits
Posted by: Lindzey
February 6, 2012 - 10:21 PM
This week the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) will post signs for vehicle load weight restrictions at the railroad overpass located on U.S. 54 approximately 1½ miles east of Yates Center. The load limits on the bridge will be: 15 tons for a single vehicle; 20 tons for a truck-tractor semi-trailer; and 30 tons for a truck trailer combination.
The weight restrictions will be in effect until the bridge is repaired or replaced. The overpass is tentatively scheduled for replacement in 2015 under the T-WORKS transportation program. The estimated construction cost of the project is $2.4 million. For more information about T-WORKS projects and funding visit the website, www.ksdot.org/tworks. Those with questions about the new weight restrictions may contact Priscilla Petersen, KDOT Southeast District public affairs manager, at 1-877-550-5368 (toll free).
