👷Upcoming Traffic Switch on Bristow Road (KY 1303)👷

We're getting closer to the finish line on this widening project! On Sunday, Aug. 23, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., there will be a traffic switch on Bristow from near Beechgrove Elementary School to north of Timber Lane. Folks will shift over to the newly paved portion of the future southbound lanes.

This work will require a single lane closure with flaggers guiding traffic safely through the work zone. Expect some delays and plan ahead!

This project is on target to be completed in late September. Want more details about the project? Check out the project website in the comments!

🚨 CONGRATULATIONS! 🚨

Congratulations to two of our newest members, Dakota Brown and Harrison Rich!

Both Dakota and Harrison graduated from Paramedic School yesterday, marking an incredible accomplishment and another major step in their careers.

We are extremely proud of the hard work, dedication, and commitment they have shown throughout this journey. Becoming a paramedic takes countless hours of studying and training. These two gentlemen put in the work to get it done!

Please join us in congratulating Dakota and Harrison on this outstanding achievement!
