Public Meeting Set for the KY 56 Improvement Project in Union County

October 17, starting at 6:00 PM

MADISONVILLE, Ky. (October 11, 2023) -- A public meeting has been scheduled to discuss the upcoming KY 56 Improvement Project, which aims to enhance safety, traffic flow, and the overall function of KY 56, providing a more secure and dependable route for residential and commercial traffic traveling to and from Morganfield.

The KY 56 Improvement Project encompasses a vital section of the road, connecting from US 60 in downtown Morganfield through the Morganfield Bypass to KY 141. The project involves paving curbs between the urban section from Morganfield to Morganfield Park and widening the road to two 11-foot lanes with 6-foot shoulders, which will also improve safety measures at the KY 758 and KY 141 intersections.

Kentucky Transportation Cabinet representatives will be available to share project details and address any questions or concerns attendees may have.

The meeting will take place on Oct. 17 at the Union County High School located at 4464 US Highway 60 West in Morganfield at 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, with a brief presentation at 6:15 PM.
