LOUISVILLE, KY (July 6, 2020) - The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) advises motorists of paving work scheduled to begin on a portion of U.S. 127 (Lawrenceburg Road) in Franklin County this week. Crews will be performing ultrathin paving work from the Franklin/Anderson County line (mile marker 0) to U.S. 60 (mile marker 6.1). Ultrathin paving is one of several preventative maintenance techniques used by KYTC to help extend the lifetime of pavement on roadways.
