The Kentucky Department of Highways will temporarily close KY 70 in Casey County to through traffic beginning at the Casey/Taylor County line (mile point 0) and ending at mile point 4 (Wolford-Murphy Road), next week, as crews work to replace cross drains beneath the roadway.

Crews will close the route on Monday, July 29, Tuesday, July 30 and Wednesday, July 31 at approximately 9 a.m. EDT and will re-open by approximately 2 p.m. EDT each day. The start date and duration may be adjusted for inclement weather or other unforeseeable delays. 

Motorists can access travel and traffic conditions at http://goky.ky.gov or contribute their own reports at www.waze.com or via the Waze mobile application.
