Editor’s note: The following provided by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, District 9:

The Kentucky Department of Highways has reopened US 60 where it crosses Tygarts Creek at Upper Tygart (milepoint 4.1) in Carter County after contractors repaired a section of pavement damaged by Wednesday's flash flooding.

All detours have ceased. However, motorists are reminded that the area remains a construction zone for an adjacent bridge replacement project, and drivers should use caution.
