I-69 continues to move forward in Kentucky! The state transportation cabinet has set a public hearing for SIU6 of I-69 which consists of I-24 and the Purchase Parkway on Monday, Nov. 15th from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. at the PADD office in Mayfield.
A handout containing project information, plans and exhibits for the project will be displayed at the meeting as well as an environmental justice study. Representatives from the transportation cabinet and their consultants will be available to answer questions.
Oral and written statements will be accepted during the meeting. Written statements will be accepted, and information made available, for a period of fifteen (15 days) after the Public Meeting at the District One office, 5501 KY Dam Road, Paducah, KY. All written and oral comments will become part of the official record.
The public hearing follows a scoping study being done on SIU6 to determine what improvements will be necessary to upgrade the section to meet federal Interstate standards. A similar study and public hearing was done in 2006 on SIU5, a 70-mile section between Henderson and Eddyville.
