WICHITA – One person was injured in an accident just after 8 a.m. on Monday in Sedgwick County.

The Kansas Highway Patrol reported a 2010 Chevy Express Van school transportation bus driven by Kimberly M. Voldrich, 30, Wichita, was on the ramp from U.S. 54 Eastbound to Interstate 135 Northbound.

Due to the combination of wet roadways and speed the driver lost control of the van and struck a bridge rail.

A passenger Jessica Ambroroso, 31, Wichita, was transported to Wesley Medical Center.

Voldrich and three children were not injured.

The KHP reported Ambroroso was not wearing a seat belt.
