      STATUTORY

AUTHORITY: KRS 174.080, 189.222

      NECESSITY,

FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 189.222 authorizes the Secretary of the

Transportation Cabinet to designate truck size permits on all roads that are a

part of the State Primary Road System. This administrative regulation is

adopted to designate the limitations applicable on those roads used in detours

from the State Primary Road System.

 

      Section 1. From

time to time it becomes necessary to close a section of designated highway

because of new construction. When this is done, the Transportation Cabinet will

provide, if possible, marked detours which will carry the same truck weight as

the road from which the traffic is being detoured. If it is not possible to

provide a detour to carry this weight, the detour will be marked and limited as

to weight. A marked detour for a designated highway which is marked without

weight restrictions, becomes a designated highway of the same class as the

highway from which the traffic is being detoured, during the time that it

remains a marked detour. (HIWA-TC-DI; 1 Ky.R. 817; eff. 5-14-75.)
