The subject property sits at the high-traffic corner of Route 192 and Barbourville Road, which is being upgraded and transformed into US Highway 25 as part of a $16 million expansion project by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. This project includes road widening, traffic diversion, and access improvements designed to relieve congestion and support ongoing growth along the corridor. Once complete, the newly constructed intersection is projected to carry up to 37,000 vehicles per day, significantly enhancing the property’s visibility and accessibility. Improvements will span from KY 229 to KY 1006, with future plans extending to US 25E.
