Rogers Group plans to restrict traffic to one lane on Ky. 1668 (Crittenden Springs Road) in Crittenden County to make road base and surface repairs between their rock quarry and U.S. 60 over the next week. The poor condition of the highway was the subject of a front page article in this week's printed edition of The Press.
Rogers Group has an industrial haul permit for about a two-mile section of Ky. 1668 north of U.S. 60. The permit requires Rogers Group to repair damage caused by trucks entering and leaving the rock quarry.
Rogers Group leaders and state Transportation Cabinet officials met Wednesday afternoon to discuss the highway maintenance issue.
After initial repairs are complete, the company will be paving Ky. 1668 from the quarry entrance to U.S. 60. Appropriate caution is required in this work zone.
