Full operation expected Thursday, Dec. 17
FLEMINGSBURG, Ky. – Highway crews will activate a new traffic signal this week at the intersection of KY 57 and the AA Highway in Lewis County.
Crews worked Monday installing pavement markings and vehicle detection equipment. The signal is expected to be in full operation Thursday, Dec. 17, weather permitting.
The signal was approved as a highway safety measure following a public meeting at Tollesboro this summer in which residents, legislators and local officials voiced concerns the intersection.
The new signal will control traffic approaching from all four directions, including the use of double-red beacons and reflective yellow backplates for better visibility. Advance warning flashers east and west of the intersection will alert motorists that the signal is about to change.
