Update - Roundabout project in Jessamine County
Part of the East Nicholasville Bypass/KY 2827 Project
LEXINGTON, Ky. (May 15, 2024) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists that this news release serves as an update. One of two Roundabout projects will be open soon for traffic. The location is milepoint 7.8 on KY 39. The multi-lane roundabout is tailored to suit the lanes for the bypass and approach of KY 39.
Roundabouts are one of the safest types of intersections. They are designed for low-speed driving. All traffic moves in the same direction. The left turn movement across traffic is eliminated. Roundabouts have also been found to improve pedestrian safety. This is accomplished by providing a short crossing of one-way traffic moving at slow speeds.
The traveling public will be informed of the actual opening date of the roundabout through an advisory furnished to media outlets. Updates will also be posted on the District 7 Facebook and X pages.
All work/closures are scheduled on a tentative basis and subject to change depending on weather, emergencies and other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways.
District 7 includes: Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford Counties
