The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is hosting a virtual open house to provide information and gather public input on future improvements to US-270 in Pottawatomie County. The department is proposing to reconstruct US-270 from MacArthur St. south to the Union Pacific Railroad bridge and modify the interchange at US-270 Business/Kickapoo Spur in Shawnee to improve pavement conditions and traffic safety.

The virtual open house will allow members of the public to view information about the project, including maps and a construction timeline, and give feedback on the proposal.
