Major east Topeka street to undergo road work into late 2026

TOPEKA (KSNT) – City workers are getting ready to start a road work project in the east Topeka area that will restrict traffic on Southeast Sixth Street for months to come.

Workers will begin construction on Southeast Sixth Street, from Golden Avenue to Rice Road, on Monday, Oct. 6, according to a press release from City of Topeka spokesman Dan Garrett. The project includes improvements to the road, the bridge that crosses over Deer Creek, stormwater utilities and a full reconstruction of the Sixth Street and Golden Avenue intersection.

Garrett said the project will be completed over the course of four phases, the last of which is expected to wrap up in the fall of 2026, with drivers limited to one lane in each direction along Sixth Street. Lane closures and detours will be marked over the course of the project.

People who live and work in the area will be given advance notice of any restrictions or service disruptions. Garrett said the city is encouraging drivers to be cautious when traveling through this construction site and follow posted signs.
