Two state roads getting resurfaced

According to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, the process started this week for resurfacing two state roads in rural Crittenden County—Ky. 506 and Ky. 654 North.

The work along Ky. 506 runs from the Crittenden-Caldwell County line extending 4.2 miles westward to the intersection with Weldon Road. Milling is expected to begin Wednesday, with paving anticipated to begin Friday.

Resurfacing of Ky. 654 North runs from U.S. 60 extending just under 4 miles westward to Baker Hollow/Weston Road. Milling work is slated to begin Wednesday. Paving is expected to start Oct. 16.

The work schedule is dependent upon weather conditions.

Motorists who regularly travel these routes in Crittenden County should be alert for one lane of traffic with alternating flow controlled by flaggers. Appropriate caution is required.

Rogers Group is the prime contractor on this $581,193 highway improvement project. Work along both sections should be completed by about Oct. 18.
