BOWLING GREEN – A major road rehabilitation project is expected to create a long-term road closure in a section of KY 100 West Cedar Street in Simpson County beginning Monday, June 12. The closure on KY 100 will be between KY 1008 McLendon Road and High Street.

The closure is expected to last more than a month and the roadway will reopen later in the summer. A detour using KY 1008, KY 383, and High Street will be signed. Larger vehicles should use KY 1008 to U.S. 31-W as the detour. Local residents will keep access to their driveways.

The closure is necessary so a contractor can complete stabilization of the roadway subgrade followed by resurfacing. This project will provide a smoother road surface for motorists when completed. The projected contract was awarded to Scotty’s Contracting & Stone LLC in December 2022 in the amount of $897,562.30.
