The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has scheduled a single northbound lane closure on US 27X (South Main Street) in Jessamine County on Tuesday, Oct. 20, according to a traffic advisory the agency's District 7 office issued Oct. 19, 2026.

The closure will allow crews to safely perform asphalt milling and paving operations. Milling removes the top layer of existing pavement before new asphalt is laid. The closure is located on US 27X between mile points 1.9 and 2.0, just north of Brown Street. Work is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., weather permitting.

Traffic will be maintained in the open lane using flagging operations, in which a flagger directs drivers through the work zone. The cabinet advises motorists to slow down, use extra caution and watch for crews working along the roadway.

The cabinet said all work and closures are tentative and may change because of weather, emergencies or other factors beyond the control of the Department of Highways. Drivers can check for updates and road conditions at GoKy.ky.gov.

The advisory covers the Transportation Cabinet's District 7, which includes Anderson, Bourbon, Boyle, Clark, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Montgomery, Scott and Woodford counties.
