A traffic stripe painting crew making rounds in Kentucky’s 12 westernmost counties has moved to the Julian Carroll-Jackson Purchase Parkway this week.
The contractor will have to make several passes to re-paint traffic striping along the entire length of the parkway.
Work along the parkway will take about a week to complete, weather permitting.
Motorists should be alert for a paint truck and several support vehicles. The caravan will be moving at a brisk clip, but some traffic backups are possible.
While the reflective paint used for applying traffic stripes to pavement is fast-drying, motorists should avoid driving through freshly sprayed paint.
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet urges residents to exercise patience and caution whenever they encounter a paint caravan.
