87th Street & Renner Boulevard traffic advisory

The city of Lenexa is warning drivers that there will be "intermittent disruptions" on Wednesday and Thursday as utility crews perform tests of a gas pipeline.

Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline plans to have the testing crew working in the intersection from 9 a.m - 11 a.m. and again 1:30 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Crews will be back again on Thursday afternoon from 1:30 p.m. until 3:30 p.m.

The city advises that during the work hours, flaggers will stop traffic in one lane at a time for several minutes at a time while the testing crew bores holes in the pavement over the pipeline and inserts probes to perform tests on the pipeline. Motorists are encouraged to use an alternate route, if possible, to avoid the delays.

More information on this project and other construction projects throughout Lenexa may be found on the city's website in the Public Improvement Projects section.
