Road Striping To Begin
KENTUCKY...
Yellow and white lines on more than 3,000 lane miles of state roads in Highway District 12 will be repainted starting June 1. Doug Wright, PE, Project Manager for Highway District 12, said traffic will be directed using rolling lane closures. $B!H (JA pilot truck with an arrow on the back will slow down traffic while the striping truck moves in front of it. It takes the paint up to five minutes to dry.
Wright said traffic should follow the pilot truck on two-lane roads, although it may
be possible to pass it on four-lane highways. Not every road will have both white and yellow lines painted. Some will have edge lines. All motorists are asked to use caution and respect the workers and the striping equipment. Everyone is asked to stay alert and pay attention all the time, most especially when traveling in a work zone. The routes affected are listed below.
