The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is set to perform a preventive maintenance project on U.S. 431 in Logan County, expected to start Monday.
According to a news release, motorists should expect lane closures and expect delays during the duration of the project from about mile point 12 to mile marker 19. The project is expected to take several weeks to be completed and is weather dependent.
Crews will be placing a layer of micro-surface on top of the roadway to extend the life of the current pavement. Micro-surfacing involves the application of a slurry sealant to the existing pavement. It seals pavement cracks, prevents pavement from degrading, and can improve surface friction.
Preventive maintenance slows pavement deterioration, corrects minor surface distress and increases safety
