KINGMAN – The City of Kingman will ante up about $5.1-million more for phase one construction of the Interstate 40 Rancho Santa Fe Traffic Interchange (TI) project. The Sept. 17 City Council vote was unanimous in support of digging deeper into the public treasury after construction bids for the TI opened Sept. 6 came in higher than expected.
