The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has closed Crofton-Fruit Hill Road during the daylight hours this week for repairs.

The closure is to allow base stabilization repairs near the 10 mile-marker, according to a news release, which says the work should take about a week to complete.

Crews will attempt to reopen the road, also known as KY 800, at the end of each work day, though they acknowledge there may be times when an overnight closure is necessary. There will be a marked detour via KY 1914 and KY 189.

Much of Trigg County will be without electricity for about an hour early Sunday morning while Pennyrile Electric performs routine maintenance.

The planned outage will happen just after midnight Sunday, according to a news release from Pennyrile, which says approximately 4,125 customers served by the Cadiz Substation will be impacted.

Those areas include the City of Cadiz, South Road, KY 272 East, KY 124, Highway 139 North, Wallonia, Gracey and Hamtown. Pennyrile Electric says it regrets the inconvenience caused by the interruption, but it is necessary for TVA to perform maintenance on a power transformer within the substation.

In case of bad weather, the interruption will be rescheduled for a later date.
