Motorists traveling the Breathitt-Pennyrile Parkway need to be aware of a temporary southbound ramp closure at the KY 800 Crofton Exit 23 interchange Tuesday.
Kentucky Transportation Cabinet spokesman Keith Todd says the southbound exit and entry ramps at Ky 800 Crofton Exit 23 interchange are expected to be closed after the morning commute for about three to four hours to allow edge drains to be installed along the ramps. He adds the contractor expects to have the work completed before the afternoon commute.
According to Todd, this work is part of the $43.2 million Pennyrile Parkway concrete pavement rehabilitation project that runs from near the KY 2642 Overpass and extends northward to near the U.S. 41 Ramp Overpass near Mannington, a distance of over 13 miles.
Motorists should remain alert for message boards and other traffic control along this work zone which has been in place since May.
