There will be daytime closure at the northbound exit ramp at the Pennyrile Parkway/KY 800 Crofton Exit 23 interchange in Christian County on Thursday and Friday.
Kentucky Transportation Cabinet spokesman Keith Todd says the ramp will be closed in order to allow the contractor to haul concrete to their paving operation along the northbound lanes of the parkway. The northbound exit ramp to KY 800 at the Crofton Exit 23 interchange will be closed from around 6:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. on both days, weather permitting.
Todd indicates there will be no marked detour. However, he says message boards will alert northbound motorists on the Pennyrile Parkway who wish to connect to KY 800 at Exit 23 to take the northbound exit at the KY 1682 Hopkinsville Bypass/Martin Luther King, Jr. Way Exit 11 and follow US 41 North as a self-detour.
This is the 4th of approximately 5 or 6 concrete pours required to construct a new concrete driving surface along the Pennyrile Parkway northbound lanes.
Hall Contracting of KY, INC., is the prime contractor on this $43.2 million rehab project, with a target completion date of August 31, 2019.
