Slide Repair Project on U.S. 127 in Gallatin County Beginning Monday, March 17
Project expected to be completed June 30, 2025
COVINGTON, Ky. (March 13, 2025) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of a slide repair project on U.S. 127 in Gallatin County beginning Monday, March 17. This work will include stabilizing the hillside in several locations. This project is needed to ensure the road remains safe for all users for years to come.
Crews will be working on U.S. 127 in four locations between mile point 3.45 and south of U.S. 42 (mile point 5.95), a distance of 2.5 miles. The four areas crews will be performing slide repairs are located at:
- Mile point 3.45
- Mile point 3.7
- Mile point 5.85
- Mile point 5.95
Once work is completed at one location, crews will move to the next location from the list above. The work will include installing soil nail walls to shore up the hillside, drainage work, adding guardrail and resurfacing in the four work zone locations.
A 24/7 single lane closure will be in place near the active work zone location. Temporary signals will be in place to guide motorists safely through the work zone.
Once the slide repairs have been completed at all four locations, a single lane closure will be in place throughout the entire 2.5 mile project area to complete guardrail installation and permanent striping. The temporary signals will be moved to both ends of the work zone to guide motorists safely through.
Motorists should expect delays and are encouraged to find alternate routes.
Geostabilization International LLC is contracted to perform the $1,050,606 project on behalf of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. The project is expected to be completed by June 30, 2025.
The date, time, and duration of work may be adjusted if inclement weather or other unforeseen delays occur. Motorists can get Northern Kentucky road construction updates on the District 6 Roadshow.
