I-24 stretch near Christian next in line for cable barriers

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced plans Friday to add cable barriers in the medians of some hazardous stretches of Interstate 24 near Hopkinsville. Based on a priority list of roads where the most crossover crashes occurred versus the number expected there based on traffic flow and design, the section of I-24 from mile marker 70 to 85 ranks at the top, according to a Kentucky Transportation Research Center review. Also on that list is I-24 from mile marker 85 to 93 in Christian County.
