Floyd County Could Get Millions In Road Funds
KENTUCKY...
A $3 billion two-year road plan now headed to the Senate includes over $57 million for Floyd County with the biggest chunk tied to the construction of new Route 680, also known as the Minnie-Harold connector. $34.5 million is set aside for road construction from Minnie to Little Mud Creek Road in 2012, and $3.3 million is budgeted for right-of-way acquisition and utility relocation this year for a section between Little Mud Creek Road and Tackett Creek. The other road construction project listed in the two-year plan is $7.6 million to relocate Route 122 at Meade Hill. That project is slated to begin during the current fiscal year, which ends June 30. Other projects are in the works for Floyd County.
