Delays possible on KY 15 in Perry County beginning Monday, Dec. 1
Tree trimming to take place between Knott County line and Hazard
JACKSON, Ky. – Drivers who use KY 15 south of Hazard in Perry County should expect delays beginning Monday, Dec. 1. Tree trimming along the right of way is scheduled to begin. The work will start at the Knott County line (milepoint 0.0) and progress northward toward Hazard.
Motorists should use extreme caution and reduce speed in this vicinity. Signs will be in place to warn drivers of this mobile operation. Shoulder closures will be necessary, and some lane closures may occur.
Removal of trees and other vegetation from the right of way helps improve sight distance for drivers, reduces the hazards of trees or limbs falling onto the highway, and allows more sunlight to reach the pavement to aid in snow melting during the winter.
