Increased security meant traffic backups at the entrance gates to Fort Riley Monday.

Geary County Sheriff Tony Wolf explained it caused problems on Interstate 70.

“As with any time Fort Riley restricts any movement in and out of those gates it will cause a problem. I hope that in the next few days or week once they get this system organized and better attuned as to what they’re going to do that the traffic will flow much better.  In the next few days yeah, you might want to start out a little bit early to go to work if you work on Fort Riley.”

There were also traffic backups at other entrances onto post Monday.
