LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Work will begin later this month to convert Logan and Shelby streets — between Gray Street and Goss Avenue — to two ways.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet said Monday that a $2.9 million contract was awarded to Flynn Brothers Contracting, Inc., a Louisville company, to begin the work.

KYTC said the project will "improve vehicular mobility and pedestrian safety throughout the corridor." The 1-mile stretch has 10 intersections with traffic signals, four of which will be replace with all-way stops. The other six intersections will be rebuilt, KYTC said.

The project also calls for curb extensions along the corridor to reduce the length of pedestrian crossings and make pedestrians more visible to drivers.

Drivers should expect changes to traffic patterns in the area beginning Jan. 15. Work is scheduled to be complete by the summer.
