Heavy rain continues across much of region this Sunday morning. Road conditions are quickly changing with ongoing flash flooding, so be prepared by slowing down and anticipate standing and/or running water across roads. It is not possible for cews to instantly put up and take down barricades for every affected location as water rises and recedes. We've had a few roads heavily damaged this weekend so NEVER drive through standing or running water. Even if you have a large vehicle, there is no assurance a complete or stable road exists beneath. Turn around.

Look into traffic conditions for our area. Especially in Versailles, LAWERNCEBURG , BG Parkway, and Lexington. Stay safe...
