Traffic Improvements Proposed for Pikeville
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is proposing several traffic safety enhancements in Pikeville, including a roundabout on Lorraine Street to slow vehicles at a low-traffic intersection, a $250,000 grant for pedestrian improvements at the Baird Avenue and ByPass Road crossing near Pikeville Medical Center, and a major over $30 million expansion of Town Mountain Road to ease congestion at the high-volume Buckley's Creek and U.S. 23 intersection.
