House Moving Through K-68 Roundabout in Paola, Kansas

Mike Stringer from KDOT provided these photos of a house that moved through the K-68 roundabout on Thursday, April 18, 2002. According to Mike:

"...it was 32 feet wide by 19 feet high by 60 feet long and weighed 85,000+ pounds. The movers had trouble pulling the signs from the splitter islands, which was really the only problem with moving the house through the roundabout. The small holes in the concrete did not allow the dirt around the posts to yield upward. The movers did not have adequate traffic control, even without the delay."
