Another stretch of 16th Street will be rebuilt under a state transportation program. The Kansas Department of Transportation recently announced the approval of a city of Parsons grant under the state’s City Connecting Link Improvement Program designed for highways that run through cities. Parsons will receive $1 million for a pavement restoration project. Darrell Moyer, the city’s director of engineering and public works, said on Thursday that the work will be done on South 16th (U.S. 59) from South 21st Street to the Little Labette Creek bridge. The new work will connect with a project now underway on the highway in front of Labette Health from South 21st to Commerce Drive.
