A right lane of northbound U.S. 68 (Harrodsburg Road) in Jessamine County will be closed Monday, Oct. 12, from 9 a.m. to noon, weather permitting, according to a traffic advisory issued Oct. 9 by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC).
The closure is at mile point 11.1, just north of Brannon Road (KY 1980). KYTC said the lane closure is needed so crews can perform corrective work along the roadway. The advisory did not describe the specific nature of the repairs.
Motorists should expect possible delays and use extra caution when traveling through the work zone. KYTC said all work and closures are tentative and subject to change because of weather, emergencies and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways.
Drivers can check for live traffic updates at GoKy.ky.gov, the state’s traffic information site.
The advisory was issued by KYTC’s District 7 office, which oversees transportation projects in 12 counties: Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford. Harrodsburg Road is one of the main routes connecting Jessamine County with the Lexington area, and drivers on that corridor are likely to encounter the closure during the morning hours.
