Top issues during term (18)(Roads)
Crestwood area traffic and commercial growth
Rose Island Road traffic safety
The state has committed $220,000 for a Rose Island Road safety study; the developer also keeps prior commitments to shoulder, tree-removal and Mayo Lane drainage improvements.
KY 22/Coral Ridge intersection design
The county and KYTC have committed funding toward the realignment, with construction slated for 2028 or later.
KY 393/US 22 traffic signal study
KY 3903 and Allen Lane road projects progressing
Project costs are borne by KYTC and the applicant's coordination obligations; no local tax impact was stated.
Truck parking at closed I-71 rest area
No county money committed; the fix hinges on a KYTC decision.
Highway 53 bypass impacts near Ballardsville
Commerce Parkway corridor traffic and access management
Myers Avenue culvert replacement
About $119,000 project; county net cost roughly $24,000 after 80% state reimbursement.
Old Moody Lane resurfacing (KY 2856)
$251,000 state-funded paving project; guardrail repair at KY 53 also planned.
Ernie Harris Parkway pavement markings
$11,484.72 from county road funds — roughly $26,000 less than the highest bid.
Gravel road maintenance and Oregon Creek Farms
Residents, not the county, would pay — from $40,000 up to $450,000 per subdivision.
Cumulative traffic on KY Highway 393 at Buckner
If KYTC eventually requires a signal, cost sharing among developers is unresolved — who pays what is still an open question.
Road and trail project funding
$823,500 total in state and mineral tax funds coming into the county budget.
Road Acceptances — Norton Commons and Sanctuary Falls
County assumes maintenance costs; $68,496.10 in bonds released to the developers.
Cox Lane road width and possible closure
Any road widening or closure could shift access and maintenance costs onto property owners and the developer.
Fall paving and infrastructure contracts
Roughly $1.71 million awarded across county projects, below the engineer's estimate.
OLDA road project reimbursement
$457,246.20 returned to county coffers.
