Traffic Switch To Be Completed Tonight As The Next Phase Of Work Begins
ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. (July 2, 2021) – Contractor crews will complete a traffic switch tonight on US 31W, as northbound motorists are shifted to outside lanes between the Ring Road and Veterans Way/Pear Orchard Road intersections. Southbound motorists will be shifted to the middle of the roadway through this section. Work to install the transition will begin at 9pm and should be complete by 6am.
Due to construction phasing, there will be differences in pavement elevations and drainage structures (bumps) throughout the project. Northbound and southbound traffic will continue to be divided by a double yellow line.
The current schedule has this phase lasting approximately 4 weeks as construction progresses on the southbound side.
Motorists should exercise additional caution, continue paying close attention to signs and be prepared for changing traffic patterns and conditions.
