Lexington Signal Changes: Jacobson Park and Versailles Road
After more than 50 crashes near the Jacobson Park entrance since 2022, three of them fatal, including the recent death of 41-year-old AJ Glasscock, the city and KYTC banned left turns on flashing yellow arrows from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at Old Richmond Road and Athens-Boonesboro Road. Mayor Linda Gorton said a planned state widening project will move the park entrance opposite Ellerslie and add a signal. In August, a new traffic light went into operation on Versailles Road at the left turn onto New Circle Road's outer loop, reorganizing turn and through movements at the interchange.
