Road environments around Gardner

I-35 and Gardner Road

The I-35 and Gardner Road interchange and bridge area can involve construction, shifted lanes, ramps, 191st Street access, and high-speed traffic. Give northbound or southbound, signed exit, mainline or ramp, shoulder side, and current traffic-control details.

US-56/Main Street

US-56/Main Street crosses Gardner's commercial and civic core. Give eastbound or westbound, nearest signal or cross street, turn lane, curb or lot, business entrance, and whether construction limits access.

Old 56 Highway

Old 56 connects Main Street with east-city and highway access. Report direction, nearest cross street, lane restriction, shoulder or ditch, property entrance, and whether a flagger or work zone controls movement.

Center Street and Moonlight Road

Center Street, Moonlight Road, schools, neighborhoods, commercial access, and developing areas require the exact block, direction, subdivision or building, driveway slope, and safe loading position.

167th and 175th Street projects

The City tracks improvements on 167th between Center and Moonlight and on 175th near I-35 and Clare Road. Give the exact segment, posted closure or detour, local-access status, and nearest open public approach.

Moonlight Road and BNSF crossing

Rail crossings and adjacent roads require the exact crossing, vehicle distance from tracks, gate or signal status, responder instructions, and a safe location. Call 911 if a vehicle is on or fouling active tracks.

What to tell dispatch

  • Say Gardner, Kansas, and distinguish it from nearby Edgerton, Olathe, or unincorporated Johnson County.
  • For I-35, give northbound or southbound, signed exit, mainline or ramp, shoulder side, and nearest marker.
  • Distinguish US-56/Main Street, Old 56 Highway, Gardner Road, Center Street, Moonlight Road, and the exact project segment.
  • Report wheels, tires, steering, brakes, keys, crash damage, leaks, vehicle size, EV or hybrid status, and whether the vehicle can roll.
  • Name the destination and confirm that the property or receiving facility authorizes access and can accept the vehicle.
  • Check Gardner project notices and KanDrive; do not enter a posted closure, cross live interstate lanes, or approach a vehicle on active tracks.

Ask live dispatch to confirm the complete price before assignment. Pickup, destination, mileage, access, roadside materials, loading or recovery work, waiting, tolls, storage, and required equipment can affect the estimate. Police-directed, impound, or statutory charges are not presented here as Tommy's voluntary-service rates.

Common road-rescue requests

Local scene safety

Call 911 for injury, fire, a vehicle blocking a live lane, a vehicle on or near active railroad tracks, or another immediate danger. On I-35 or US-56, do not cross lanes, stand in a gore point, or walk along a narrow shoulder. Follow KDOT, Police, railroad, flagger, and work-zone instructions and stay away from tracks, moving equipment, and recovery lines.

Questions drivers ask

Does Tommy's have a Gardner office or truck stationed in Gardner?

This page makes neither claim. It is an inquiry guide. Dispatch must confirm current authority, availability, equipment, pickup access, destination, and price for the exact request.

What authority must be confirmed for Gardner service?

Applicable Kansas carrier requirements and any City license, permit, or other local requirement for the exact entity and activity must be verified. This page does not display or imply an unverified certificate or City approval.

What should I report from I-35 and Gardner Road?

Give northbound or southbound, signed exit, mainline or ramp, shoulder side, bridge or 191st Street position, posted construction control, nearest marker, and a map pin.

How do I check Gardner construction and closures?

Use the City's project pages for local work and KanDrive for Kansas incidents, closures, cameras, construction, and weather. Follow posted detours and flagger instructions.

What if my vehicle is near a railroad crossing?

Call 911 immediately if it is on or fouling active tracks. Do not approach the vehicle. Otherwise give dispatch the exact crossing, vehicle position, gate or signal status, responder instructions, access, and destination.

How can I obtain a Gardner accident report?

Use the Gardner Police accident-report process. That government service is separate from ordering voluntary towing, and Tommy's does not claim a Police Department relationship.

How much does a Gardner tow cost?

Price is job-specific. Dispatch must confirm pickup, destination, mileage, access, loading or recovery, waiting, tolls, storage, roadside materials, and required equipment before assignment.
