FlemingUpdate: Flemingsburg bypass construction
Motorists should watch for changing traffic patterns on KY 11 at the new Flemingsburg Bypass intersection. Currently, the traffic signal has been removed and motorists approaching from all three directions – on the existing bypass, on KY 11 from Maysville and on KY 32 from downtown Flemingsburg – must stop at the intersection where traffic is configured as a three-way stop.

Traffic will shift to newly-constructed travel lanes as work progresses. Motorists should reduce speeds and stay within marked lanes, heed all warning signs and remain alert for future changes in the work zone. Also, watch for barrells and lane changes where construction crosses Cherry Grove Road (KY 597) and KY 11 intersections as well as at the KY 57 terminus.
