Traffic Advisory on US 68 during 400 Mile Sale

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet is reminding participants in the US 68 400 Mile Yard Sale and motorists who regularly travel US 68 through Kentucky to use extra caution during the annual event coming up May 31 through June 3, 2018. Heavy traffic is expected all along the US 68 Corridor across Kentucky between Paducah and Maysville.

Thousands of bargain hunters are expected to take to the road along US 68 to stop at some of the thousands of homes and booths that will be offering just about anything for sale you can imagine— and a few things you might never imagine.

Tips for shoppers include:
Don’t park along the highway- find a parking spot off the roadway
Be alert for low moving traffic and watch for sudden stops

Tips for those setting up booths include:
Do not set up on highway right-of-way
Pick a site with ample parking for shoppers
Do not place Yard Sale signs on state right-of way
Do not place signs where they block the view of oncoming traffic
