The cost to fix Wichita’s worst freeway bottleneck — the notorious North Junction — is about 20% higher than originally projected, and both the city and county will have to put up more money. The work on the current phase of the project was originally projected at $30 million, but has risen to $36 million, city documents show. City Hall and Sedgwick County are responsible for 25% of the cost, which is being mostly being paid by the Kansas Department of Transportation.
