Temporary Road Closure Scheduled for Culvert Replacement on Green Road (KY 2043) in Kenton County Beginning Monday, June 2
Closure expected to last through early August
COVINGTON, Ky. (May 28, 2025) – The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of an upcoming road closure on Green Road (KY 2043) in Kenton County as part of a culvert replacement project.
Beginning Monday, June 2, Green Road will be closed between mile points 3.35 and 3.40 near the 12800 block. The closure is expected to remain in place through Tuesday, Aug. 12.
Local traffic will be able to access the roadway up to the closure point. Through traffic will not be permitted due to the extent of construction. Work will include removal of the existing culvert and roadway, installation of a new culvert, and repaving to restore a smooth driving surface.
Motorists should follow the signed detour, which will guide traffic from Green Road to U.S. 25, then to KY 16, and back to Green Road.
This work is part of a larger culvert replacement project that began last year but was postponed due to material delays. To minimize impacts on school transportation, KYTC rescheduled the remainder of the project for late spring/early summer 2025.
During the initial closure in summer 2024, contractors completed several other project tasks, including fence relocation, site clearing, waterline relocation and guardrail installation. The new culvert has since been fabricated and is ready for installation.
Message boards will be in place to alert motorists of the closure.
Riegler Blacktop Inc. is contracted to perform the $1.07 million project on behalf of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. The project is expected to be completed by Aug., 31, 2025.
Project schedules are subject to change due to inclement weather or other unforeseen circumstances.
