One Lane Traffic for Bridge Repairs in Pike County
KY 197 Bascom Mullins Rd begins September 28
PIKE COUNTY(Sept. 28, 2022)- The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet advises motorists of one-lane traffic with temporary delays beginning this week for bridge repairs on KY 197 near Bascom Mullins Road. The bridge is located at mile point 14.9 (1.7 miles Southwest of KY 80 and 5.1 miles East of KY 195)
Work is projected to take approximately four to five weeks to complete. Large equipment will be required to do this work which will restrict the roadway widths during construction; because of this, the road will be down to one lane with portable traffic lights at each end directing traffic. Crews will work Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Motorists are encouraged to follow signage and pay close attention to equipment parked in the work area during daytime and overnight hours.
Central Bridge has been contracted to perform the work. Schedules are subject to change depending on weather conditions.
