Purpose

A transportation safety study now underway in South Louisville will evaluate potential improvements to KY 1931 (7th Street Road/Manslick Road) that would enhance safety and reduce crashes for Kentuckians who rely on the state highway. The study, in partnership with Louisville Metro Government’s transportation safety initiative, Vision Zero, will identify short-term and long-term safety and mobility enhancements for the roughly three-mile corridor.

The study corridor includes three sections along KY 1931 (7th Street Road/Manslick Road) from KY 2054 (Algonquin Parkway) to Wathen Lane, Wathen Lane to U.S. 60A (Berry Boulevard), and U.S. 60A (Berry Boulevard) to Lance Drive.

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 and improve multi-modal transportation options.
Type of Project
