Agreement made to extend South Lawrence Trafficway
The Kansas Department of Transportation and Baker University have agreed on the building of the eastern leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway through the Baker Wetlands.
approved by the Army Corps of Engineers, the trafficway will connect with Kansas Highway 10 east of Lawrence.
Various proposed routes of the trafficway has been contested for years by Native American groups seeking to protect Haskell University's campus north of 31st Street and environmental groups seeking to protect the wetlands south of 31st Street. The approved route, referred to as the 32nd Street alignment, will run one-eighth of a mile south of 31st Street.
Building the traffiway along this route would destroy 65 to 100 acres of wetlands
In return, Louisiana Street south of 31st would move a half-mile west and Haskell Avenue south of 31st would move a quarter-mile east. KDOT has tentatively agreed to an $8.5 million mitigation package, which will include creating 300 to 700 new acres of wetlands between Haskell Avenue and Louisiana Street.

Student Senate will distribute handbills with information on tuition increases to those waiting in line for the Kansas-Missouri basketball game tonight.
Anna Gregory, senate communications director, said it was an easy way to reach those involved in the tuition debate.
"This is a perfect opportunity to get students, alumni and people who care about KU all in one place," she said.
The handbills will include contact information and cost comparisons for students.
Gregory said she hoped the state legislature would choose to invest in higher education.
Gregory said Senate hoped alumni especially would benefit from the information provided in the handbills.

New copying service may open location at the Kansas Union
A local copying service may fill the gap left behind when Mail Boxes Etc. closed in the Kansas Union in December.
Pat Beard, director of Building Services for the Kansas and Burge unions and member of the facility committee of the Kansas Union Memorial Corporation, said that DPI, the Lawrence copying company that serves the Kansas Union, has expressed interest in the space. Beard said he hoped to bring back the copying and postal services that Mail Boxes Etc. used to provide.
"I think our desired outcome would be that we got a copy service back in there," he said.
For now, students can purchase books of stamps in the Kansas Union Bookstore. A copy machine is available for student use on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union, across from the computer lab. The fee is 10 cents per page.
Beard said the committee was looking for stamp vending machines for the Union.
The facility committee is also considering using the space for a travel agency or a beauty salon. Beard said final plans for the space should be decided by spring break in March.
