HUTCHINSON, Kan. — Hutchinson Mayor Greg Fast noted that though phase one of the Woodie Seat project is done, there will be more to do in the coming years.
"It is open, it does look like we've done something," Fast said. "It's beautiful, smooth, striped perfectly, some of the medians are taken out or shaved down. That was phase one that we worked with the county with a combined grant from the state to help pay for a lot of that."
The drawings are still being looked at for the next phase.
"The next part would be phase two from Avenue C to the north, sloping down to a roundabout at Avenue A," Fast said. "Currently in the design phase, looking at preliminary designs, figuring out lighting, figuring out what the slopes of the hill will look like, and then putting it out for bid."
That work would likely happen in the 2025 construction season.
