ATTENTION: TRAVEL UPDATE

Due to bridge improvement projects on Kansas Highway 10, westbound travelers headed to Lawrence might experience delays between De Soto and Eudora. Traffic in that corridor has been reduced to a single lane, with the Kansas Department of Transportation cautioning drivers to be prepared for slowing or stopped traffic.

Extensive road construction on East 23rd Street in Lawrence may cause delays as well.

Please plan accordingly. Should you be delayed for your check-in time, don’t worry, we will be ready for you when you arrive.
