Road closure update in local counties

UPDATED as of 3 p.m. 4/8:

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – The rain has finally moved out of the District 3 area and some roads are beginning to reopen. However, many roads remain impassable. District 3 crews will continue checking out routes throughout the day. The current list of known state routes with water across them are listed below.

Motorists are reminded not to attempt to drive through possible high water regardless if warning signs are in place or not. District 3 crews are doing their best to put out barricades and other traffic safety devices to close roads as fast as they can. But it is possible roads could be flooded and signs have not been put in place yet. Please do not drive around or move barricades, barrels or any other traffic control devices.

For road conditions, please visit GoKY.ky.gov. Weather forecast updates are available on the NWS Louisville’s Twitter account here, and Facebook account here. The District 3 Twitter account can be found here and the District 3 Facebook account here.
