Taylor Co. Fiscal Court awarded $676K by transportation cabinet By Chris Jessie At Tuesday's Taylor County Fiscal Court meeting, Commissioner Gray Tomblyn II of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) Department of Rural and Municipal Aid announced $676,207 in discretionary funds for vital resurfacing work on West Finley Road, Eastport Road, Raikes Hill Road and Moss Road. Resurfacing repairs address existing surface cracks, potholes and raveling. Renewed roads will benefit residents of approximately 80 homes. "The $676,000 we are receiving from the state will go a long way toward much-needed repairs," said House Majority Floor Leader John (Bam) Carney. "Resurfacing roads is a guaranteed way to extend the life of our roads, making them safer and smoother for the folks who travel on them. I appreciate the Transportation Cabinet's leadership in making Taylor County a priority. After all, what we don't maintain today, we will replace tomorrow." Taylor County Fiscal Court is responsible for administering the work, and KYTC will reimburse the county for these projects. Resurfacing work will address:
"I'm pleased to learn that Taylor County has received funding for these road resurfacing projects," said Sen. Max Wise. "This infrastructure upgrade will certainly benefit our community." The investment supports Governor Matt Bevin's commitment to prioritize transportation infrastructure projects and increase economic opportunity across the Commonwealth. "The Bevin Administration continues to focus on taking care of what we have at both the state and local level to address critical infrastructure needs that improve safety and support job creation and retention," said KYTC Secretary Greg Thomas. "This funding builds upon existing transportation investments and allows the cabinet to collaborate with local governments to identify projects that will have large impacts to communities." Taylor County Judge-Executive Barry Smith identified these roads as being among the most critical in the county. "Thank you Governor Bevin, Commissioner Gray Tomblyn and Field Representative Nick Van Over for all the help acquiring these funds for our county roads," said Judge-Executive Smith. "It will provide safer travels for our school buses, emergency services, law enforcement and the rest of our citizens. These roads can become hazardous during winter and the better we keep them in condition, the safer it is for our citizens to travel." This story was posted on 2019-08-14 06:36:23
