Roadway closed until Woodall Branch Culvert is replaced
PADUCAH, Ky. (Feb. 21, 2022) –The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) has closed a section of KY 2603/Vanzora Road in Marshall County due to a damaged culvert.
KY 2603/Vanzora Road is closed at the 4.6 mile point at the Woodall Branch Culvert after a local farmer noticed the roadway had settled. KYTC District 1 engineers examined the culvert this morning and determined that it had likely been damaged during recent flash flooding. They also determined that the culvert will likely have to be replaced.
The roadway at this site has been closed until further notice while engineers work to formulate plans to replace the culvert as quickly as possible. However, it make take several weeks to get a pre-fab culvert ordered that fits the parameters of the site.
This culvert is along KY 2603/Vanzora Road between Vann Pitt Road/Woodall Cut-Off Rd and KY 408/Oak Level Road in western Marshall County.
Motorists may self-detour via KY 408, KY 1949/Wadesboro Road, and KY 3525/Tom Lane Road.
KYTC District 1 will attempt to provide timely updates as plans to replace this ailing culvert move forward.
