 Beginning Monday, February 19th, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 12 will be closing a bridge along Kentucky 12-10 for repairs. The estimated time for said repairs to be completed is two weeks. During this time, motorists are advised to seek an alternate route and be mindful of any road workers or machinery in the area. What essentially is happening is we're doing some concrete deck repairs there on the bridge. A lot of the times our bridges are made of concrete and that's a little bit different repair as our roads and stuff that have asphalt. So when we get a concrete kind of pothole, it's a little bit more of a lengthy repair. So we're going to go in there and we're going to work on getting that deck fixed. It's going to take about two weeks. We're hoping that we get it done sooner but it's all weather permitting.

If you take Kentucky 404, I know a lot of people use that route there. They travel from 1210 on to 404. So we're asking people that if you take that route to avoid that and travel Kentucky 80, you'll need to go down through Martin and into Water Gap and use that through Kentucky 80 instead of using Kentucky 404. So that's the preferred route. You know, there may be some other routes and things that people can use and things but that's the one that we prefer because we know that's a good route to use. So Kentucky 80 as the detour down through Martin and Water Gap. Reporting for Mountain Top News, I'm Nick Colum.
