Area residents will have the opportunity to provide feedback on upcoming road work in Elizabethtown.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet will host a public meeting on Tuesday, August 13 to present design alternatives that will address congestion and safety within the U.S. 62 interstate interchange corridor with improvements for intersections and accommodations for pedestrians.
The meeting will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. on August 13 at the Elizabethtown Tourism and Convention Bureau, located at 1030 North Mulberry Street.
“With continued growth of the area, more traffic, more congestion, this public meeting is going to feature some ideas, alternatives to offset that, and we know it’s only going to increase,” said KYTC District Four Public Information Officer Chris Jessie. “We have to plan now, trying to stay ahead of that curve, and again we’re going to present some ideas for intersections and just the corridor as a whole out on the interstate end of U.S. 62 for improvements.”
The meeting will be an open-house format with no formal presentation. Residents can stop by any time to review displays, ask questions, and discuss the design alternatives with officials. Meeting accommodations can be made by reaching out to Kevin Blair at KYTC District Four (270-766-5066).
More information on the project and a survey link for anybody that wants to provide feedback but is unable to attend the meeting in person can be found at www.drive62.com.
