A traffic construction advisory that just landed in my inbox:

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet plans to close KY 345/Huffman Mill Road in CHRISTIAN County on Wednesday and Thursday, April 16 & 17, 2014.

KY 345 will be closed at mile point 8.753 to allow a log jam to be removed from the Little River Bridge.

Flooding over the winter uprooted a large tree that jammed under the bridge and collected a massive amount of debris.  The Christian County Highway Maintenance Crew will have to use a crane to pull some of the large trees off the bridge piers.

This is along KY 345 between KY 107 and KY 695.  Motorists who regularly travel this section of KY 345/Huffman Mill Road should make advance alternate travel plans for Wednesday and Thursday.

There will be no marked detour.  Engineers estimate it will take about two days to remove the debris pile, but the work could extend into Friday.
