Study finds Southwind intersection with U.S. 83 working as intended
Finney County Commission reviewed a Kansas DOT traffic study at U S 83 and Grandview Drive that found the intersection functions adequately with current lanes and speed. Officials noted no changes warranted though Mayo urged longer turning lanes. The report cites speeding and left turn conflicts but avoids strong action, with future upgrades possible in preliminary design.
