Kentucky Road Photos
From six-lane rural Interstates to four-digit state routes that are a lane and a half wide, Kentucky Road Photos will showcase the variety of highways that dot the landscape of the Bluegrass State.

This interchange southwest of Louisville marks the transition from KY 1934 (Greenbelt Hwy.) into KY 841 (Gene Snyder Fwy.). 10 miles ahead, KY 841 intersects I-65, where I-265 begins and multiplexes with KY 841 around the eastern edge of the Louisville vicinity up to I-71. |

The US 25 designation terminates at the northern end of the bridge, while US 42 and US 127 continue on into downtown Cincinnati and points beyond in Ohio. |

US 60 and KY 2 shields at the starting point of KY 2 North, Olive Hill, Carter County. The TO tab above the KY 2 marker is a bit misleading, as this is in fact where KY 2 begins. |

Gap in KY 57 South at the Licking River, Fleming County. There is no access for KY 57 across the Licking River. Rather than a bridge or a ferry to connect the two segments of highway, on either side KY 57 narrows into a muddy path and then disappears into the river! (For a close-up of the disappearance of KY 57 into the river, please click here.) |
