The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announces Traffic Impacts in the District 3 Area for the week

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 3 announced expected traffic impacts in the District 3 area for the week, May 25th through May 29th.

There will be rolling roadblocks on I-65 in Simpson County on two separate days in the coming days.

The first day will be May 31 near the 6 mile marker in both directions.

The second day will be June 7 near mile marker 11.

These rolling roadblocks are for a utility crossing, and motorists should expect delays during the day while these crossings are being done.

An exact time and length of the rolling roadblocks are not known at this time.

In Monroe County, construction on the Tompkinsville bypass will continue.

Folks in the community will notice signs placed in advance of the construction zones.

Because it is a new route, most of the construction will take place away from traffic.

However, as construction progresses, some traffic impacts will occur particularly at intersections with Edmonton Road, Radio Station Road, Center Point Road, Cave Springs Road, Capp Harlan Road, and Celina Road.
