The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of the weekend closure of the bridge carrying Buechel Bypass (U.S. 31E/U.S. 150) over a set of railroad tracks in Jefferson County. |
|
 |
The bridge will be closed from 9 p.m. on Friday, March 17, to 5 a.m. on Monday, March 20, between mile point 10.4 and mile point 10.5. That’s between the cross streets of Plaza Avenue and Hikes Lane. During the bridge closure, signs in the area will direct drivers to utilize Hikes Lane, Shepherdsville Road, Buechel Bank Road, and Progress Boulevard as the posted detour.
Various closures have been in place for the bridge since a February 2021 inspection found deterioration on one of the bridge’s pier caps. The repairs were initially delayed as KYTC, and the contractor sought approval from the railroad to work on the bridge section over the tracks. Last year, crews began working under the bridge, in an area not visible to motorists crossing the span. Those repairs have now advanced to a point where the weekend closure of the entire bridge is necessary. The repairs are expected to be completed in spring 2023.

Notice of Application for Wrecking of Historic Structure The Office of Planning and Design Services has received a zoning change application on which historic structures are proposed for demolition on the property listed below:
Subject Property: 5000 and 5004 Maple Spring Drive
Case Number: 22-ZONE-0140
The above reference properties are listed or potentially eligible for listing in The National Register of Historic Places. The applicant has requested a notice of the proposed demolition be sent simultaneously with the notice for the public hearing of the zoning change request. LMCO (150.110) permits this dual notice and commences the required 30-day hold on the property now as opposed to at the time of application for a wrecking permit. The purpose of the 30-day hold is to provide time for the community to consider the demolition and, if warranted, prepare a petition to review designation of the building as a local landmark. This hold will expire after 4/13/2023. Once this hold has expired, a wrecking permit may be applied for and issued if the Development Plan showing its removal is approved.
For additional information regarding this application contact Savannah Darr, Historic Preservation Officer at 574-5705 or savannah.darr@louisvilleky.gov.

A consumer reported to BBB that they received an email claiming they had won a free pickle ball set from Dick’s Sporting Goods, and that they only had to pay shipping and handling. After the consumer provided their payment information, they noticed several unauthorized charges on their account. BBB warns consumers to be wary of any messages regarding sweepstakes or contests that they don’t remember entering. |
BBB has received several reports from consumers involving employment scams. One red flag the scams share is that a scammer pretending to be a recruiter asks the victim to download an app to conduct an interview. BBB warns job-hunting consumers to research companies first before agreeing to an interview and be wary of any unusual interview tactics.
A consumer reported a check scam involving Facebook Marketplace to BBB. The victim received a cashier’s check from a buyer. The buyer later claimed they needed the money returned due to a medical emergency. The victim returned the money, and later learned the check was fraudulent.
BBB has received several reports from consumers of fake recruiters using a real company’s name in an employment scam. BBB warns consumers to be suspicious of any unsolicited interview offers, research companies first, and verify with the company directly that any recruiter represents them.
A consumer ordered a flower delivery for a sick relative, only for the flowers to never arrive. The company claimed they would issue a credit, but never did so, and the consumer has since been unable to get a refund or get in touch with the company. BBB warns consumers to always check a company’s profile on BBB.org before completing a transaction.
BBB has seen multiple reports of scam calls claiming to represent LG&E. As a reminder, LG&E will never call and demand payment over the phone. If consumers have questions or concerns regarding their accounts, they should contact LG&E directly. Never give payment information over the phone!
A consumer reported a social media account recovery scam to BBB. After the consumer’s business Instagram account was suspended, the consumer contacted a company they believed could help recover the account, only to lose money to the fraudulent company. BBB warns consumers to avoid such “companies,” who will not actually assist in recovering accounts and instead will rip off victims!
Beware of BBB imposters! BBB has received reports of scammers claiming to represent BBB in order to steal personal and financial information from victims. The real BBB will never ask you for passwords or personal information over the phone. If you are unsure if you’ve been contacted by an actual BBB representative, contact your BBB office directly. Do not give out personal or financial information over the phone!
March Madness® has returned, and with it, maddening phishing scams. Ignore emails or texts with links to join bracket pools from sites or groups you didn’t request to join – these could be attempts to steal your personal or financial information.
BBB continues to receive reports of scammers claiming to represent Publishers Clearing House. As a reminder, Publishers Clearing House does not contact their sweepstakes winners by phone or text, and any sweepstakes that demands a fee upfront in order to claim a prize is a scam.
