ODOT tasked a consultant to look at alternatives for improving the US-77/SH-39 intersection while taking into consideration construction costs, right-of-way costs, and environmental constraints.
Three alternatives were developed:

• Alternative 1 – realigns SH-39 through Veterans Park to create a new signalized intersection at US-77
• Alternative 2 – realigns SH-39 through Veterans Park to create a roundabout intersection at US-77
• Alternative 3 – realigns SH-39 north along 3rd Street to create a new signalized intersection with US-77

After consideration of costs, impacts, and feedback from the City of Lexington, ODOT has identified Alternative 3 as the preferred alternative for this project. More detail on the alternatives can be found in the Project Presentation.
