City of Hays

Traffic control for the Reconstruction of South Vine Street Project will change on Thursday.  

During the next phase of construction, northbound traffic on Vine Street between the U.S. 183 Bypass and Eighth Street will be carried on the new pavement in the center of Vine Street. Southbound traffic will remain on the old pavement along the west side of Vine Street in the outside southbound lane.  

The intersection of Eighth and Vine will open to through east/west traffic. Due to construction in the northeast corner of the intersection of Vine Street and the U.S. 183 Bypass, westbound Old Highway 40 will be closed east of Vine Street. Old Highway 40 will remain open to local traffic, but westbound through traffic will need to use Eighth Street. 

North of Eighth Street, traffic will remain one lane in each direction in the outside lanes, while the inside lanes are still being reconstructed.  Access to all businesses will remain open but might be restricted at times as temporary entrances are constructed
