(Northern Kentucky) - The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) District 6 Office advises motorists of street sweeping around our region beginning Sunday, April 6, between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. Sweepers will be out Sunday night through Friday morning until the work is complete.
Street sweeping is done to remove potentially harmful materials. The sweeper collects debris, loose gravel, nails, metal, dirt, etc. all things that could impact motorists if they need to utilize the highway shoulder for an emergency. This work is performed once a month to clean and maintain highway shoulders along barrier walls, bridges and bicycle lanes.
Locally, I-75 (143 – 192 mile marker; both directions): from the Ohio River to Grant/Scott county line. Sweeper will move through Boone, Kenton and Grant counties. I-471 (entire interstate, both directions): from the Ohio River to I-275 Interchange. I-275 (entire interstate, both directions): from Ohio to Indiana. Sweeper will move through Boone, Kenton and Campbell counties. I-71 (77.7 – 54.9 mile point): from the I-75 split in Boone County to Exit 55 (to KY 1039) to Vevay, Indiana, in Gallatin County
