Roadwork Shouldn’t Effect Black Gold Festival

Organizers for Hazard’s Black Gold Festival said road work should not impact the event. Festival chairman Terry Feltner told WYMT the parade this year will be headed down East Main Street,” across the old bypass and end at the Combs Motel on North Main,” away from the project currently underway on North Kentucky 15. Feltner said visitors entering from the South end of town won’t even go through the roadwork traffic. The layout is also said to be different this year, expanding over a wider area.
