Roadwork on U.S. 31E in Hodgenville scheduled to begin Monday

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District Four anticipates a project on U.S. 31E in Hodgenville will be completed in time for the start of the school year.

The KYTC says the highway safety and mobility improvement project is scheduled to begin along U.S. 31E/Lincoln Farm Road between Greensburg and Miller roads in Hodgenville on Monday, July 6. Paving, striping and curb work will be taking place with a reconfigured center turning lane layout to include a path for bikes and pedestrians.

The KYTC says the improvement project features designated left-turn lanes for Greensburg Road and the main entrance to the Abraham Lincoln Birthplace National Historic Park. The Abe Lincoln Elementary entrance is also being reconfigured to help relieve congestion and reduce conflicts.

Motorists should pay close attention to signs, workers, and equipment and use caution when approaching and traveling through the work zone. Brief delays may be possible and flaggers may be present to direct traffic. Follow KYTC District Four on social media for updates.
