| Crossing on Hwy 120 near Cedar Street |
According to workers with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to remove inactive rail crossings on 120 in Providence have progressed faster than anticipated. Work has already been completed to the site on the Green Grove edge of town, and crews will now be moving on with the site located between Gulf and Poplar Streets in Providence.
KY 120 will be closed from around noon today, Tuesday, February 18, until the work is completed, meaning residents on the western side of town should plan to detour around the area for the time being.
The crossings will be temporarily patched, so use caution when crossing these sections of road.
