(Feb. 20, 2026) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists and area residents of bridge maintenance on West Main Street (U.S. 421) at milepoint 0.8 on Monday, Mar. 9, in Fayette County. The structure carries U.S. 421 over Norfolk Southern Railroad, Price Street and Turner Commons Way.
