By Steve Rogers
POWELL COUNTY, Ky. (WTVQ) – Folks headed to the Red River Gorge or other areas should take note.
The Mountain Parkway in Powell County near the Wolfe County line remains closed and likely will be for awhile because of a sinkhole under the pavement.
The problem threatens to swallow up vehicles should it completely collapse.
According to the State Transportation Cabinet, the westbound lanes are closed indefinitely near mile marker 35 in Powell County just west of the Wolfe County line.
State officials say the collapse is near the Tunnel Ridge Road underpass at the top of Slade Hill. Westbound traffic is being detoured at exit 40 in Wolfe County onto north bound KY 15.
