State adding traffic signal
at Veterans Memorial Highway/ KY 49 intersection


By Mark Brown
News from Elizabethtown KY Highway District

Elizabethtown, KY, July 23, 2010 - Traffic signal installation is under way at the intersection of KY 2154 (Veteran's Memorial Highway) and KY 49 (Loretto Road), in Lebanon.

Engineers expect the sensor-controlled signal will be operational by mid-August.

"As installation is completed, motorists will need to use caution as the community adjusts to the new signal," Patty Dunaway, chief engineer for the Elizabethtown highway district, said.




A recent Transportation Cabinet study indicated that traffic volumes along both intersecting roads warranted a traffic signal.

Traffic counts at the intersection have trended upward since the Lebanon bypass was completed in July 2008. Nearly 6,000 vehicles a day pass through the intersection.

Motorists should use caution in the work zone while installation progresses.
