Here are a few quick updates regarding 12th Street construction.
· The State has awarded the construction contract, and construction should begin any day now.
· As you may have seen in the City’s E-News, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's plan to widen 12th Street has been split into two separate projects. The section between the Interstate and Russell Street will begin any day now. The section between Russell Street and Scott Street (including Madison Avenue between 11th and 12th Streets near the Cathedral) will likely begin in the next 6-8 weeks.
· All overhead utilities will be relocated underground – this will really enhance the appearance of the completed project!
· The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has confirmed that the new 12th Street bridge will be constructed just south of the existing bridge (you may recall that the bridge had to go through several phases of design to conform with CSX and other requirements). The really good news is that the new bridge will be OPEN before there is a need to close the existing bridge! This will aid through-traffic immensely!
· The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet and the City will try to provide as much notice as possible for any temporary lane or road closures that are needed to complete construction.
