Donald Hare sends 5 dramatic photos of KY 61, Interchange construction

Five dramatic aerial photos of the construction on the new Louie B. Nunn Parkway Interchange with KY 61 South and the new KY 61 construction are now posted and follow this story.

Donald Hare, a Flight Parmedic with Air Evac-43, took the photos while aboard the unit's helicopter, flying at 135 miles an hour.

The unit was in Columbia today to take part in a Mock Disaster exercise at Adair County High School, in conjunction with the Adair County EMS and other public safety organizations.

Mr. Hare is a resident of Campbellsville, KY. Our thanks to him for sharing the photos with the readers of ColumbiaMagazine.com.
