KY 2026 in Powell County to be closed June 3-5 for culvert installation

 

JACKSON, Ky.  – Drivers who use KY 2026 (Maple Street in Stanton) in Powell County will have to find an alternate route Wednesday through Friday, June 3-5. The road will be closed at milepoint 3.8 for installation of a large aluminum box culvert.

The road will be closed to all through traffic 24 hours per day beginning Wednesday morning. It is expected to reopen to traffic late Friday afternoon.

The structure is expected to be delivered on Monday, June 1, and assembled the following day. Some delays are possible on these two days.
