KY 1932 (Chenoweth Lane) planning study 2015-2016
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) conducted a planning study to identify and evaluate potential improvements for KY 1932 (Chenoweth Lane) between US 60
(Shelbyville Road) and US 42 (Brownsboro Road).
Updated Study Purpose: The purpose of the KY 1932 (Chenoweth Lane) project - from the CSX railroad crossing (just north of US 60) to US 42 (Brownsboro Road) - is to (1) improve sight distance and safety for all users; (2) improve drainage along the corridor; and (3) improve pedestrian safety and mobility.
The study:
·
Analyzed existing and future conditions including traffic/capacity, environmental overview, crash analysis, and bicycle and pedestrian safety and connectivity.
·
Established a “vision” for the growth of the corridor.
A public meeting was held on November 16, 2015 as part of the Public Involvement component of the study. The second public meeting took place on February 29, 2016. Both meetings were held at Broadway Baptist Church, 4000 Brownsboro Road. The second meeting provided the public an opportunity to comment on potentional improvement options including sidewalks, turn lanes, drainage improvements and bicycle facilities.
The final report for this study was completed in the fall of 2016 and can be found at

KY 1932 (Chenoweth Lane) improvement design project
The purpose of the KY 1932 (Chenoweth Lane) project from the CSX railroad crossing to US 42 (Brownsboro Road) is to 1) improve sight distance and safety for all users, 2) improve drainage along the corridor and 3) improve pedestrian safety and mobility. The 2015-2016 planning study for Chenoweth Lane recommended sidewalks and drainage improvements along the full corridor from the CSX railroad crossing to US 42 (Brownsboro Road). Between the railroad and Massie Avenue, urban curb and gutter is recommended for this section of roadway. Between Massie Avenue and Brownsboro Road, the roadway would remain a more rural concept with improved ditches.
