Please note:

From March 16 through June 30, the City of Topeka is replacing a storm drain just east of the Rochester Cemetery entrance on Menninger Rd.

During this time, please access the cemetery from Green Hills Rd via 35th or 46th Street. Take Green Hills south to Menninger Rd, then head east to the cemetery.

You may see several “Road Closed” signs, but the closure is just east of the cemetery. We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
