KDOT performing pavement tests in northwest Kansas

KDOT

The Kansas Department of Transportation will be conducting pavement evaluation tests on portions of Kansas 23 and Kansas 383 in Sheridan County and Kansas 283 in Trego County from Monday through Thursday.

This operation will include the use of a pilot car operation to control traffic.

KDOT performs Falling Weight Deflectometer tests annually to test the quality of the pavement and certain aspects of deflection upon the roadway. Technicians will be working in four-mile segments while performing the tests and travelers should expect a minimal wait of 15 minutes or less while the survey is underway.

For questions concerning the FWD tests, contact KDOT District Three Maintenance Engineer, Michael Terry at (785) 877-3315 or mterry@ksdot.org.
