A field survey for a proposed culvert replacement on the north side of Newton is expected to begin around Monday, Jan. 22.

The proposed improvement would be on Old Trail Road before it connects to eastbound U.S. 50. That’s east of the north junction of I-135/U.S. 50. The length of the survey is about 2,000 feet and is based on the existing alignment.

The field survey, expected to be completed by March 15, will gather information needed for the detailed design of the proposed improvement.

A member of the survey crew first will contact property owners and/or tenants for permission to enter private property. Survey activities will include the use of survey instruments on the ground to determine locations of existing features within the survey corridor.

ill Fox, P.S., Survey Project Manager, Garber, will be in charge of this survey for the Kansas Department of Transportation.
