Lane closure near bus stops on Preston Highway
Heard on:
Louisville KY Transportation
03:45
00:00
I'm on the 0312 block nine.
00:05
I'm on Preston Highway at Forest.
00:08
Starting to go about Forest, which is the place of AutoZone up to Town and Country Ford.
00:17
I don't know what that road is.
00:19
Maybe Crestwood, but.
00:21
. . The water company has a lane blocked off, committing only to one lane going northbound.
00:31
And there's two bus stops that are there.
00:35
And I don't know if that's a safety issue or not.
00:38
Might go to advise or give the advice.
00:42
That's 10-4, operator.
00:43
So you said on Preston at Forest going north? 10-4?
00:49
Yeah, that's 10-4.
00:51
Advise.
00:53
That's a 10-4.
00:55
How far from Forest does it go, like approximately?
00:58
It looks like about a two-block coverage.
01:01
There's two bus stops involved there.
01:05
Yeah, 10-4.
01:07
Ten four. Does the supervisor have you channel one? Preston and Forest, about two blocks.
01:15
They have it down to one lane.
01:16
The water company, ten four.
01:18
I tried it and so I couldn't get through.
01:22
Operator, where the cold stops are.
01:24
Is there any type of construction site right there or is it just cones?
01:28
Yeah, cold stops.
01:31
Where the passenger have to.
01:35
Across the lane to get to the bus.
01:38
Even though the cones are there, I'm still adding up.
01:43
That's a 10-4.
01:44
So I guess they got you in the far lane and they have the lane closest to the curb blocked off by cones.
01:51
As long as it's not through traffic right there, but cars are coming on the other side, the curb side.
01:58
And as long as there's no construction or work being done right there, it's simply cones.
02:03
You can put emergency lights and stop right there.
02:06
Ten four.
02:07
Okay, ten four.
02:08
So in the 1st block by the AutoZone, there is cones that are there blocking off the road, blocking off that lane.
02:18
It's not until you get to the 2nd bus stop where there is a water company and the trucks.
02:24
I don't know what they're doing, but that bus stop is.
02:32
Maybe a few feet away from where those trucks are.
02:36
It's not that I can't stop and put on my emergency, but again, I'm just for safety concerns, need to be advised.
02:43
That's a 10-4.
02:44
If you feel like a supervisor come check it out, I'm downtown at the VTC handling something.
02:50
But as soon as a supervisor can, they'll make it in right there.
02:54
If you feel like it's dangerous, picking up right there, then 10-4, just bypass it, 10-4.
03:00
Yeah, ten four.
03:01
I appreciate that.
03:02
Supervisor, come out and take a look at it, and I'll get back with you.
03:06
And let the other bus drivers know if they call ten four.
03:10
Ten four. And that street on Preston is what? That cross street is Preston and Forest, right there at the Auto Zone, the Goodwill Center.
03:23
It sound like you said Preston and First.
03:26
Is that correct?
03:27
Negative. Preston.
03:28
And forest forest, it's that little shopping mall.
03:35
There is a little shopping mall area right there, with Goodwill Auto Zone, and some kind of Mexican stores.
03:44
Ten four, Preston and Forest.
