Omaha to KC

With parts of 1-29 out, does anyone know what the best way to get from Omaha to KC is now?
Not sure it's the best way, but this is the route I took:

1. Ne-50 South to US-136 (in Tecumseh)

2. US-136 to US-75 South (in Auburn)

3. US-75 to US-73

4. US-73 to US-36

5. US-36 to I-229

6. I-229 to I-29

I took this route for several reasons:

1. Obviously I-29 being closed north of Rock Port

2. Construction on US-75 between Omaha and Nebraska City

3. Bridge down to one lane on US-136 in Brownville

4. US-159 closed east of Rulo

Drive time was 3h40m, leaving from west Omaha to Olathe. There was no construction and very little traffic until US-36 (that's where you'll run into dumb Missouri and JoCo KS drivers who can't drive a two lane highway). Speed limits were either 60 or 65 mph.
