Transportation crews to begin treating for noxious weeds KYTC says nuisance plants can interfere with driving, damage infrastructure Click on headline for complete story By Ryan Watts News from Office of Public Affairs FRANKFORT, KY - (7 Mar 2016) - Kentucky Transportation Cabinet crews will begin treating for noxious and nuisance weeds throughout the state this month. The treatments aid in controlling the spread of undesirable plants along state highway rights of way. The cabinet, in accordance with KRS 176.051, targets Johnson grass, giant foxtail, Canada thistle, nodding thistle, common teasel, multiflora rose, amur honeysuckle, poison hemlock, marestail, Japanese knotweed, and kudzu. Property owners can learn more about specific treatments in their areas by contacting their district highway office. Visit Roadside Maintenance Map and click on the map for district contact information. Left uncontrolled, noxious weeds can grow so large that they interfere with a driver's line of vision on highways. They can also damage pavement and embankments and clog ditches, causing drainage problems. Noxious weeds often invade and destroy the roadside turf grass, leaving these areas vulnerable to erosion. They can also smother native plants through rapid reproduction and long-term persistence. Motorists are reminded to use extra caution when crews spraying for weeds are out on the roadways.
