A contractor for the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans milling and paving along a section of U.S. 60 West of Owensboro in Daviess County starting Wednesday.

This milling and paving project runs along U.S. 60/Henderson Road from near the KY 279 intersection at mile point 6.3 extending eastward to mile point 10.179 at the end of the U.S. 60 Wendell Ford Expressway, a distance of about 3.8 miles.

Motorists should be alert for one lane traffic with alternating flow controlled by flaggers. Appropriate caution is required where equipment, flaggers, and construction personnel are along the roadway in close proximity to traffic.

Yager Materials, LLC, is the prime contractor on this $646,929 highway improvement project. The target completion date is Oct. 15, 2019.

As a reminder, U.S. 60 West remains closed near the 6 mile marker in Daviess County at the west end of this work zone for reconstruction of about a ½ mile section of U.S. 60 between Owensboro and the Stanley community. The extended closure includes a marked detour via KY 1554, KY 56 and KY 279. Through traffic between Owensboro and Henderson should travel via the Audubon Parkway.
