Drivers should expect some delays as a turning lane project along U.S. 62 gets under way this week.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says the work zone will extend from the Eastview/Wonderland Cavern Road area through the Stephensburg community to just east of the KY-222 intersection where the divided section of U.S. 62 begins.
Alternating one-way traffic will be controlled at various locations in the work zone by temporary signal. The most impacted areas along U.S. 62 will be at Joy K Lynn Street, English Oak Drive, Zeus Street, and KY-222. Morning and afternoon peak school traffic will also amplify delays around Lakewood Elementary School and West Hardin Middle School.
The expected completion date for construction is November 15. Drivers should slow down and pay close attention to work zone signs as they approach both ends of the work zone.
