SPARTA, Ky. (AP) -- Kentucky State Police are urging people driving tractor-trailers and buses to stay away from the Kentucky Speedway to avoid big race-day crowds expected later this month.
It's part of a plan aimed at avoiding a repeat of last year's traffic jam that marred the track's inaugural Sprint Cup Series race.
The state has made road improvements and the Speedway expanded parking in hopes of smoother traffic flow this time.
State police said Thursday that tractor-trailers and buses should avoid the Gallatin County area, especially Interstate 71, on June 29 and 30 when the northern Kentucky track will have big racing crowds. The signature event is the Quaker State 400 on June 30.
Police say an alternate route will be available for commercial motor vehicles on those days to avoid delays.
