*** NEWS: Road Closures On Picadome Park And Vista Street **

From the Division of Water Quality :

LEXINGTON, KY. (Aug. 22, 2025)  Beginning Monday, Aug. 25, Vista Street between Rosemont Garden and Picadome Park will be closed to all thru traffic. This is in addition to the recent closure of Picadome Park between Lafayette Parkway and Vista Drive.

These closures are due to sanitary sewer construction. They are expected to last for approximately one month. Residents will be able to access their homes during construction.

Drivers should use Lafayette Parkway, Reed Lane, Pin Oak Drive and Rosemont Garden to detour around the closures.

This work is part of a project to upsize approximately 4500 feet of sanitary sewer line along Wolf Run Creek. Construction is estimated to be finished by the end of 2026. This project is part of the federal consent decree requirements for Lexington to improve its sanitary sewer system.

Improving Pedestrian and Traffic Safety on Clays Mill Road: Planned Enhancements

1.  Pedestrian-activated crosswalk at Reed Lane on Clays Mill Road. This will feature a traffic light that cycles from yellow to red to safely stop traffic. An island in the middle of Clays Mill Road will provide a refuge for pedestrians crossing. Clays Mill & Reed

2.  Pedestrian Crosswalk at Clays Mill/Harrodsburg Road Intersection: A new crosswalk will be added to the existing traffic signal, allowing pedestrians to safely cross both Clays Mill Road and Harrodsburg Road. Harrodsburg & Clays Mill

3. Curbing on McCubbing Drive: Curbing will be installed on both sides of McCubbing Drive where it meets Clays Mill Road to enforce the existing “right turn only” traffic flow.

*For those interested, detailed drawings of the planned pedestrian crosswalks at Clays Mill/Reed Lane and Clays Mill/Harrodsburg Road click here: Clays Mill & Reed and here : Harrodsburg & Clays Mill
