STANVILLE, Ky. (WMDJ) – The newly-constructed connector road to Betsy Layne High School will open Tuesday, July 9th.

The new access road, which is located off U.S. 23, ties into E. Main Street at Stanville near the post office and will lead to Bobcat Blvd and the school.

Officials say the improvement provides safer sight distances and a more streamlined traffic flow.

The new connector replaces the old entrance to Bobcat Blvd., which has been the sight of numerous accidents for years.
