U.S. 60 water levels monitored

The Union County Highway Maintenance Crew reports flood waters are nearing the edge of U.S. 60 at the 23- to 24- mile marker near the Union-Henderson County line.

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet personnel are on site and closely monitoring water levels.  The water has only come up about a quarter of an inch in the last hour and rain has stopped in the area.

U.S. 60 has both lanes open at this time. If necessary, the crew will monitor one lane traffic through the area.

Due to the elevated water level along U.S. 60, motorists should slow down and use caution in this area between Waverly and Corydon.
