Mountain Parkway Expansion Meeting Provides Preview of Upcoming Construction in Salyersville

Dozens attended a public meeting Tuesday night to learn more about construction that is starting soon on the Restaurant Row Segment of the Mountain Parkway Expansion. Over the next three years, the main roadway will be widened to four lanes and converted to a partially controlled parkway that will improve the flow of traffic through Restaurant Row while ensuring access to businesses, residences and other facilities. During the meeting at Magoffin County High School, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet representatives and members of the construction team displayed detailed maps of the project corridor and talked with residents about the utility and construction work beginning in the coming weeks. Throughout the construction project, crews will maintain full access through Restaurant Row and to the businesses and properties along the corridor.
