What are the proposed road changes dealing with 169 Highway that would bring more traffic to Loan Elm road towards the intersection of 175th street.

The following information is provided by the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT).

KDOT does not currently have work planned for US-169 highway that would increase traffic on Lone Elm Road.  Both KDOT and the city of Olathe have analyzed short term and future upgrades of Lone Elm Road near 175th Street.  While these plans are still subject to change, the most recently completed study for the future upgrade can be found online (www.ksdot.org/projects.asp) as the K-7 Corridor Management plan.  If you have additional questions about KDOT work in the Johnson County area you can contact the KDOT Olathe Metro Office at 913-764-4525.
