***Traffic Signal at U.S. 127 & Fruit of the Loom Drive to Operate in Flash Mode***
The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) will place the traffic signal at the intersection of U.S. 127 and Fruit of the Loom Drive in Jamestown into flash mode beginning Friday, Feb. 13, for a 90-day period while traffic patterns are evaluated and public input is gathered regarding the signal’s future.
Stop signs will be installed on Fruit of the Loom Drive and Herriford Curve Road.
Motorists traveling on those routes will be required to stop before entering U.S. 127. Northbound and southbound traffic on U.S. 127 will operate as a continuous through movement.
Drivers making left turns from U.S. 127 onto the side streets must continue to yield to oncoming traffic.
Motorists are urged to use caution while traveling through the intersection as drivers adjust to the new traffic pattern.
KYTC previously conducted a traffic study at this location that showed a decline in traffic volumes, falling short of federal traffic volume thresholds to warrant the continued presence of a signal as driving behaviors have changed over time.
To guide decision making, KYTC will conduct an additional study while the signal is in flash mode to observe traffic patterns under stop-controlled conditions and the public is invited to share their comments about the proposed changes with staff.
Comments may be submitted by email to: KYTC.District8Info@ky.gov through close of business on May 15th, 2026.
