Closure from Noon to 6 p.m., Friday

PADUCAH, Ky. (July 25, 2024)  A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) plans to close a section of KY 1943 (Skinframe Creek Road) in Lyon County on Friday, July 26, 2024.

KY 1943 (Skinframe Creek Road) will be closed to through traffic between the KY 373 intersection at mile point 2.6 and the Skinframe Creek Bridge at mile point 3.4 to allow full-width paving.   This section of KY 1943 will be closed between Noon and 6 p.m., CDT, Friday.

This section of KY 1943 has been getting heavy detour traffic due to the closure of KY 295 at the Livingston Creek Bridge at the Lyon-Crittenden County Line south of Dycusburg.

Paving the roadway full-width allows paving to be completed more quickly, and provides a smoother ride when completed.

The crew will provide local access on each side of the paver, and will provide access for emergency vehicles.

KYTC District 1 will attempt to provide timely notice should the work be completed ahead of schedule.
