The contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans asphalt paving along Main Street in Marion starting at 6:30 a.m., Monday. Paving was originally planned at night, but there has been a change.
This daytime paving project will require a high level of public cooperation due to on-street parking in a three-block area of the Marion downtown business district. By starting at the U.S. 60 and U.S. 641 Intersection and moving eastward, the crew hopes to be through the downtown area by mid-morning on Monday.
All vehicles parked on Main Street downtown should be removed by 5:30 a.m., Monday.
Motorists should be alert for one lane traffic with alternating flow controlled by flaggers.
The work is expected to take about a week to complete, weather permitting. Paving will go from Tabor's Towing and Repair to the Rush Creek Bridge at the city sewer plant.
