LEXINGTON, Ky. — [The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced Friday](https://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/KYTC/bulletins/41336f3) that contractors will perform pavement marking work on KY 595 in Madison County on April 17, weather permitting.

Work is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. near mile point 5 at Peggy Flat in the northbound direction, according to the [KYTC District 7](https://transportation.ky.gov/DistrictSeven/Pages/default.aspx) press release. Contractors will apply thermoplastic striping, a durable pavement marking method that lasts significantly longer than traditional paint applications.

Thermoplastic markings are applied at high temperatures and create a long-lasting road marking solution. According to highway marking industry standards, thermoplastic striping can last 5-8 years compared to traditional paint, which typically lasts 18-24 months. The material is applied through extrusion or heating methods and provides enhanced reflectivity for improved visibility in nighttime and wet driving conditions.

Flagging operations will be in place to guide traffic through the work zone. Motorists should expect brief delays and are advised to use caution and watch for signage and personnel in the area. All work is tentative and subject to change depending on weather and other unforeseen circumstances.
