KY 321 in Floyd County pavement repair closure to begin Tuesday

Work to take about a week to complete, state says

PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WTVQ) – KY 321 in Floyd County will be closed to all traffic beginning Tuesday, Feb. 8, through Tuesday, Feb. 15,, between milepoints 1.6 and 2.1 for roadway repairs. The closure is necessary to repair damage to the pavement caused by a large rock fall last month.

Since asphalt plants are closed for the season, concrete will be used for the repairs. This will require the week-long closure of the road.

The impacted area is located 0.2 miles south of KY 3, near Highlands ARH, and 0.2 miles north of KY 3024 (Stonecrest Road) near the National Guard Armory.

Drivers should use alternate routes, including US 23, KY 3, and KY 1428, to bypass the closure.

The closure was originally scheduled for last week, but was postponed due to the weather.
