Culvert Replacement Scheduled for KY 343 McRoberts

Work begins Monday, December 12

LETCHER COUNTY (Dec. 8, 2022) The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet advises motorists of construction along KY 343 near McRoberts of Letcher County. Crews will begin installing a concrete box culvert starting Monday, December 12. The work site is located at mile point 1.4 (1.4 miles west of KY 317) just before Seals Drive.

Crews will work Monday through Friday from 7 am to 5 pm, with some weekend work possible. Due to the complexity and location of the culvert, work is expected to take 16-18 weeks to complete. Traffic will continue to be routed along the current detour. Motorists may experience some delays during working hours. Please watch for updated signage and equipment parked in the work zone during overnight hours.

Irvine Construction has been contracted to perform the work. Schedules are subject to change based on weather conditions.
