Resurfacing road project approved for Crittenden County

FRANKFORT, Ky. (KBSI) – Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear approved requests from 15 city and county governments to fund repairs to local streets and roads. One of those roads in Crittenden County.

Judge Newcom requested funding to resurface Fords Ferry Road (County Road 1342).

The estimated cost of $150,000 to resurface 3.1 miles of the road.

“Our local roads are what our families drive on every day to get to work, school, church and more – so it’s important to keep them in good repair so our families stay safe,” Gov. Beshear said. “That’s why throughout my administration, we’ve taken every opportunity to assist local governments in making repairs and improvements to the streets that connect our people on a local level and help define our communities.”

The discretionary funding is administered through the Department of Rural and Municipal Aid at the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.
