ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. (May 21, 2026) – Construction continues along US 68 in Green and Taylor Counties to improve safety and passing opportunities along the corridor. Within the next week, the signal at the KY 323 intersection on the Campbellsville end of the project will be removed and traffic will be converted into a small roundabout. An exact date is not available due to expected rain in the forecast. The initial roundabout size is temporary. The final roundabout traffic pattern will be larger. The smaller initial intersection footprint is required for work crews to remove poles and construct outer corners of the roundabout. Motorists should slow down upon approaching the intersection and anticipate this change.
Most of the asphalt base is down between Greensburg and Campbellsville, but the final surface overlay is yet to be placed. Final surfacing along the stretch is currently expected to take place mid-to-late summer. Shoulders are still being constructed throughout the corridor.
A reduced 45mph speed limit remains in effect. Motorists are encouraged to continue slowing down when approaching areas where crews are working. Short delays are still possible at various times with flaggers directing traffic around construction operations.
The US 68 project between Greensburg and Campbellsville is on schedule for September completion.
