Moock Road will be closed this weekend due to ongoing construction

Motorists will need to find an alternative route this weekend while traveling Moock Road.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet announced the closure. KY-1632 (Moock Road) at US-27 will be closed this weekend, July 26 starting at 9 p.m. until Monday morning, July 29 at 6 a.m., weather permitting

Construction continues at US 27 at I-471 in Southgate, KY near Fort Thomas as the nearly $2 million pavement rehabilitation project in Southgate started with lane closures on April 8.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has been replacing aging concrete with new asphalt at the U.S. 27 and Interstate 471 interchange, which has required lane closures, weekend ramp closures and a closure on Moock Road at U.S. 27, according to KYTC.

"We are excited to address the deteriorated pavement at the U.S. 27 and I-471 interchange," said Bob Yeager, chief district engineer for KYTC District 6. "This will improve the commute for the residents and motorists who live and travel within this area."



The Harper Company was awarded the bid. The project should be completed in October of this year.
