Page Content
Purpose
The purpose of the Preston Transportation Plan study is to determine needs and evaluate concepts to improve safety, reduce congestion, and improve multi-modal transportation options along KY-61 from Commerce Crossings Drive to Briden Avenue, or just south of I-265 to just north of I-264.
Project Scope
This study includes a full analysis of existing conditions along the corridor that will be used to develop practical solutions and improvement concepts to boost roadway safety, address congestion issues and improve traffic flow.
The study will focus on short-term and long-term improvements that KYTC and Louisville
Metro can use for further project development and implementation.
