MADISONVILLE, Ky. (July 2, 2020) – Beginning Wednesday, July 8, a contractor will reduce U.S. 60 down to one lane at MP 19.4 on the Spottsville Bridge in Henderson County. Temporary traffic signals will be utilized to control alternating one lane traffic across the existing Spottsville Bridge and the work zone.  Additionally, the lane width will be reduced to 9 feet.

KY 1078 (17.5 MP) and KY 2243 (3.0 MP) will be closed at their intersections with U.S. 60.  Traffic will not be able to access U.S. 60 from KY 1078 or KY 2243.  U.S. 60 traffic will not be able to access KY 2243 or KY 1078.  There will not be a marked detour for these routes.

This temporary traffic control is being installed so the contractor can address an underground mine shaft void on the west side of the Green River.

The contractor should be finished within 2 weeks, but has up to 25 days to complete the work. Traffic will be restricted to a 9 foot wide lane.  Traffic over 9 feet will not be permitted through the work zone.
