Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback on Monday ordered the state to re-examine its policy on crossover cables on Kansas 10 after a double fatality that claimed the life of a 5-year-old boy.
Brownback also directed Transportation Secretary Deb Miller to design plans to widen the shoulders and add rumble strips to K-10 on the Douglas County part of the highway similar to what’s in place in Johnson County.
“While that may not have prevented this crash, it seems like a very important safety improvement,” Brownback said in a one-page letter to Miller.
