Mountain Parkway Expansion Enters Next Phase

Salyersville, KY — Mountain Parkway crews have been working toward their goal of widening the Parkway on the north side of the Restaurant Row project by building out the westbound lanes. Closing the eastbound lanes for paving work will begin the final substantial construction phase of the Restaurant Row project. Median barrier walls are being constructed along Restaurant Row and in other areas across the Parkway to create a safer driving experience by separating lanes of opposing traffic. Throughout the summer, crews will begin by putting down layers of crushed stone pavement and will continue with multiple layers of blacktop until the eastbound lanes are ready for final painting in the fall.
