Somerset Bypass
I have been seeing this huge construction project going on east of fishing creek for a while now and I know its the somerset bypass but I can find ANY information on it online...
Where is it going to start from and where is it going to end. I have seen it on cumberland parkway and its going to be one serious road!
Anyone have any info on this???

- Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.
Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me. - Location: Kentucky (Lake Cumberland)

It starts clear around on the 914 (90) bypass and goes all the way around over the parkway and back to US27 to my knowledge.

Re: Somerset Bypass

Re: Somerset Bypass
Dollars to doughnuts they screw it up by putting in too many stoplights and interchanges. A few years from now, all the businesses move out there. The problem worsens. End result: bypass no longer expedient. These planners never learn.

I got the same tongue lashing from a guy at work when I mentioned how if they had any brains, they would have made 461 a four lane the whole way down.
