Work is starting this week on the widening of New Circle Road in Lexington. This work ties in with future plans to construct a double-crossover diamond interchange at Leestown Road and New Circle. Lexington Public Works Commissioner Nancy Albright said the project will help with traffic flow on both roadways.
“Continuing to three lane, each direction, New Circle Road as that road has continued to get more and more traffic on it. And to accommodate a lot of the development, both commercial and residential on Leestown Road,” said Albright.
