Kansas patrol seeks 119 troopers to patrol interstates 24 hours
Kansas Highway Patrol requests 119 more troopers and 17 sergeants to expand to 24 hour interstate coverage over five years. Col. Bert Cantwell told a Senate committee the plan costs about 44 000 per trooper in year one and would help cut highway crime and assist stranded motorists. The agency would grow from 243 to 362 troopers and would phase in the increase due to training limits and budget. Cantwell noted traffic reaches 10 000 miles of highway coverage statewide.
