Stretch Of I-65 Will Be Expanded To Six Lanes

KENTUCKY...

A stretch of Interstate 65 in south-central Kentucky is about to be expanded to six lanes.The $39 million project covers a 4.6-mile section running from the overpass for Kentucky 1339 in Edmonson County to the interchange of I-65 and Kentucky 255 in Barren County.


Gov. Steve Beshear said in a statement that temporary barriers have made the roadway safer but aren't the final solution. Several sections of I-65 have been fitted with the temporary barriers and with median cable barriers to help prevent traffic from crossing the median and causing a crash. Beshear on Thursday announced that Scotty's Contracting and Stone LLC of Glasgow was awarded the contract after submitting the low bid.
