KY DBE certified business directory

The Web site’s expanded KY DBE Directory allows users to initiate searches based on business description, geographical location and KYTC prequalification status.

The expanded Directory is important to the first tier contractors seeking certified DBE contractors to bid as sub-contractors or partner on the project. All certified DBEs should review their information, including prequalification status and business description and contact the Project Team with any corrections.

Project Mapping
The new mapping function is integrated with Google Maps, providing users with more accurate information about areas affected by the project. The public can see street-level detailing that has not been available until now. When zooming in, the maps reveal where the roadway and right-of-way lines are planned. (These lines are approximate and subject to change.)

For users to be able to navigate the site in a more effective manner, many adjustments have been made. By improving the functionality and user-friendliness of the site, the public will have easier access to both historic and up-to-date information on the project.

The revised site features a significant amount of information about the project. Users can find more than 150 pages of content and 200 downloadable files. All of the project’s major and historic documents are available, including the Record of Decision, and Section 106 Memorandum of Agreement and Financial Plan.
