PADUCAH, Ky. (Mar. 20, 2025) – A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) plans to replace a bridge over Clayton Creek on KY 121 South in Calloway County.
Starting Friday, March 21, traffic will shift to the onsite diversion around the work zone at the 10.843-mile marker on KY 121 South. There will be a 45-mph speed limit.
