I-75 to US 27 Connector
Connector route from Interstate 75 to US 27
This road project would provide improved connectivity between US 27 and I-75 south of Lexington. Potential corridors are being evaluating for a new connector route from US 27 in the vicinity of Nicholasville in Jessamine County to a location on I-75. The location on I-75 will be south of exit 104 (Athens-Boonsboro Road) in Fayette County and at or north of exit 90 (Dr. Robert R. Martin Bypass) in Madison County. This connector road would be 14 to 17 miles long, and estimated to cost approximately $200 million, depending on the route taken to connect U.S. 27 and I-75.

FAQs
The first Public Meeting for the corridor development process was held on November 20, 2007 at the West Jessamine Middle School. A map of the study area was provided and the attendees were asked to draw lines where they would like to see the connector built; they were also given an opportunity to voice an opinion as to whether a corridor is necessary. The map with potential corridor lines drawn by the public is shown below.
