U.S. 24 Bridges over Goodyear Road

Project Description

This priority bridge replacement project is in the early design phase and includes replacement of the U.S. 24 Bridges over Goodyear Road in north Topeka in Shawnee County. Specifically, this project is the replacement of bridge #076 (westbound) and bridge #077 (eastbound), which are located 1.67 miles east of the U.S. 24 / U.S. 75 junction.

Replacement of the existing bridges is necessary, as the structures are at the end of their service life. Additional benefits of the project include reducing future maintenance needs and enhancing safety and connectivity.

This project is part of the KDOT Priority Bridge Replacement Program, and it is anticipated to be under construction in the fall of 2025.
