Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District Four is announcing new road closures as work progresses to the next phase of the KY 1357/Saint John Road widening project.
The KYTC says utility relocations, intersection tie-ins, and bridge construction over Billy Creek will require several changes for motorists over the next week.
Beginning Monday, November 4, access to Croghan Drive will be closed for connecting the newly constructed alignment. That closure is expected to last two days. To access Croghan Drive, drivers will need to turn onto Harvard Drive and follow detour signs.
Beginning Tuesday, November 5, access to Langley Trace will be closed for utility and bridge construction. That closure is expected to last until April 1. To access Langley Trace, drivers will need to turn onto Rue La Grande and follow detour signs. Residents can also go from West Park Road to Ring Road or College Street.
KYTC District Four Public Information Officer Chris Jessie says work is progressing on the project.
“These closures and the work they’re going to allow represent a shifting point as we move into the next phase of this project,” Jessie said. “There’s still a lot of work to be done yet. They’re at Billy Creek and the other half of the road is yet to be constructed. Once Croghan Drive reopens, motorists will be on half of the new alignment for the project.”
