City considers costly interchange plan replacement
The council weighs giving up control of a key interchange at Santa Fe and I-35 amid an $18 million price tag. Critics warn the plan would displace businesses on Santa Fe and Rogers Road, require 25 percent city funding, and burden Bendix/King workers while a traditional diamond interchange could be preferable. The plan’s Kansas Transportation alignment and future 119th and 151st Street rebuilds factor into the debate as officials urge collaboration with KDOT to protect city interests.
