Metcalfe/Monroe Co. road to Tennesee moves into design phase New work on KY 163/Tompkinsville RD, along with the coming new interchange of US 68/Greensburg RD at the Louie B. Nunn, will dramatically improve highway travel between Adair County and Metcalfe and Monroe Counties -CM By Kiersten Jaggers, KY Department of Highways BOWLING GREEN, KY - Serving as the primary north-south connector for south Metcalfe County, KY 163 begins at the Tennessee state line and travels northward through Monroe County to intersect with US 68 in Edmonton, linking Monroe and Metcalfe counties to the broader highway network of the Commonwealth. The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet conducted a planning study in 2007 that included an analysis of conditions along KY 163, US 68, and KY 80. Funds have since been provided for design of two projects developed from that study - a new interchange of US 68 with the Cumberland Parkway east of Edmonton, and a western bypass around Edmonton - as well as five spot improvements and two bridge replacements along KY 163 between Edmonton and KY 90. There is not yet funding for right of way acquisition, utility relocation or construction.
