In keeping with his pledge to complete major infrastructure projects throughout the commonwealth, today, Gov. Andy Beshear announced a $34 million road project that will complete the last section of a long-awaited connector highway between the communities of Minnie and Harold.
Completing the connector’s remaining 2.89 miles of the 14.89-mile Minnie to Harold connector, Kentucky Highway 680, will cut Hazard to Pikeville drive time by about 45 minutes by providing a direct route between two of the most heavily traveled roads in Eastern Kentucky: Kentucky Highway 80 at Minnie to U.S. Highway 23 at Harold. The project began in 1991.
