Construction work to complicate life on KY 237

SOUTHGATE, KY (FOX19)- Spots along Camp Ernst and Pleasant Valley Roads are now home to road work that may slow things down but shouldn't close the roads.  There will also be intermittent closings Sunday on I-75 in Grant County.  For those headed north, weekend construction is resuming at the Cut-in-the Hill on I-75, which may be worse for many people in Boone County than anything that's actually happening in the county.

Here is the newest list of what's going on in Boone and neighboring counties from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet.

BOONE COUNTY
