Groundbreaking held for another ARRA project


Another project funded by Amer­ican Recovery and Reinvest­ment Act (ARRA) dollars broke ground yesterday.


Gov. Steve Beshear, KIPDA Executive Director Jack Couch and other local officials gathred to break ground for construction of an extension to Blankenbaker Parkway., a $5.1 million project.


The new section of roadway will extend Blan­kenbaker by six-tenths of a mile from Chenoweth Run Road to Taylorsville Road. It will create direct access from Taylorsville Road to the Bluegrass Industrial Parkway. The extension will be con­structed to the east of Cheno­weth Run Road and run between the Deer Creek patio homes and Landherr Estates.


Flynn Brothers Contracting Inc. of Louisville was awarded the contract and participated in the ceremony. Construction is to be completed in the summer of 2011.
