Todd Fiscal Court on Friday morning heard an update on state road projects and learned about efforts to bring back jail inmate work crews to the community to pick up litter and other duties.
Lucas Gilliam with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet says they’re using funds from last year’s budget to soon begin repaving work on US 79 from the railroad crossing to KY 848 improvements that will be welcomed by those working and transporting goods to and from Novelis.
Chief Engineer Joe Plunk says the contracts have to be signed by the summer of next year for replacements of the four bridges along US 79 between Tennessee and Russellville. Those replacements are funded by a federal BUILD grant that will pay for widening of 79 for trucks servicing Novelis and Logan Aluminum.
