Estill County KY needs better access to Mt. Parkway

Why do we sit back and never complain about our poor quality of roads in Estill County? We have the worst access to the Bert T. Combs Mt. Parkway of any eastern KY county unless it is Menifee County.

Many people have been killed in car accidents on the dangerous Irvine-Winchester Road also called KY 89 N.

Irvine KY would get more through traffic should a new road be built from Irvine to Hargett and Clay City. We are losing jobs and tourism because of the sorry condition of this road. Local efforts to bring in economic development are hampered as a result.

Imagine if we had bumper stickers and signs in businesses DEMANDING a new road be built from Irvine to Hargett, Winchester and Clay City!

Estill Countians need to get "out and about" and realize we haven't recieved our fair share of road construction as of late.
