The largest piece of the largest highway construction project in state history is about to be moved into place this weekend on I-235.
Otherwise known as Broadway Extension, I-235 between N 36th Street and I-44 is closed, at least through the weekend. The $88 million project will expand that span of I-235 from four to six lanes. Contractors are moving two two-million-pound railroad trusses into place across I-235.
