The reconstruction project runs from the KY 93 intersection to the Interstate 69 interchange.
US 62 has been widened to four lanes with a center turn lane through the project area. This final paving effort to provide a smooth driving surface is expected to take 3 to 5 weeks to complete, weather permitting.
Starting this week the contractor has been smoothing shoulders and placing a final driving surface on driveway and business entrances along this section. The contractor has started some milling work to prepare for application of a final driving surface.
Drivers should be prepared to encounter lane restrictions and a variety of equipment and construction personnel working along the roadway.
