Portion of KY 126 in Trigg Co. closed due to sinkhole

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet has closed a section of KY 126 in northeastern Trigg County due to a sinkhole in the roadway.

According to a news release, Cobb Road is blocked around the 5.2 mile point, about 50 feet south of the Trigg-Caldwell County Line where a sinkhole about the size of a bushel basket formed in the middle of the roadway.

The roadway will remain closed until further notice to allow engineers time to evaluate the sinkhole and develop a repair plan.

KYtC District 1 will attempt to provide timely updates as repair plans progress.
