A project to improve the intersection of U.S. 68X Main Street and KY 103 College Street in the city of Auburn will create a long-term intersection closure. The intersection of U.S 68X and KY 103 will close this Monday, July 28, at 6 a.m. The closure is expected to last 30 days.
Trucks and other large vehicles should not approach the area or other internal side streets due to lack of space for large vehicles. The recommended route for the detour is KY 73, U.S. 68 and KY 100.
The project will realign and widen the intersection along with drainage improvements with some curb, gutter and sidewalk work. The project was awarded to Scotty’s Contracting & Stone LLC in May for the amount of $336,738.
The entire project is expected to be completed by November.
