- The westbound lane of West 1st Street, (US 62) will remain open.
- The eastbound lane of West 1st Street, (US 62) will be closed.
- All of East First Street will be closed at the North Main Street (US 62/US 231) intersection.
- US 62 (North Main Street) will remain open during this partial closure.
Over-sized vehicles will encounter10-foot lanes through this work zone. Eastbound trucks from Central City are asked to use the Western Kentucky Parkway.
Some delays are possible during the movement and placement of equipment to facilitate the work. Appropriate caution is required where equipment, flaggers, and inspection personnel are along the roadway near live traffic. The project is expected to be complete this summer.
