LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ)The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says that work will begin Thursday, February 14, for the Georgetown Northwest Bypass/U.S. 460 in Scott County.

KYTC says the project will improve connectivity and mobility around the city of Georgetown from Long Lick Pike/KY 32 to Interstate 75.
