The Lookout Farm Drive bridge, the years-long Turkeyfoot Road overhaul and five other infrastructure projects filled the Crestview Hills Public Works Committee's Nov. 4 agenda.

The agenda listed Council Member Tim McKinley as chair of the 9 a.m. session. Committee members include Council Members Ed Wise and Mark Lehman, along with Genie Wambaugh, James Knadler, Michael Simms and Mayor Paul Meier. Staff listed were Public Works Director John Scheben, City Administrator Alex Mattingly and City Engineer Mike Yeager of Compass Infrastructure Group.

Nov. 4 meeting minutes were not available in the online records reviewed.

Turkeyfoot Road

At the Aug. 5 meeting, Mayor Meier said project plans should be final by fall 2026, according to meeting minutes. After that, the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC) would begin right-of-way acquisition, a process that could last three to four years. City officials traveled to Frankfort earlier in the year to advocate for state funding, the March 4 minutes show.

Dixie Highway sidewalks

The sidewalk project runs along Dixie Highway from Whitehouse Drive north to the Lakeside Park city boundary. As of Aug. 5, KYTC had not approved the design. The Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI) told the city no additional funds were available, but the Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky said it may help cover costs tied to an adjacent bus stop, per the July 1 minutes.

Horsebranch Road

This grant-funded repaving and drainage project was submitted to KYTC for approval earlier this year. At the Aug. 5 meeting, Yeager said KYTC engineers had questions about a planned "flexamat," and the tentative timeline called for bidding in fall 2026 with construction starting in spring. Whether that bid has occurred is not in available records.

Lookout Farm Drive bridge

The bridge replacement has been underway since March. Scheben told the Aug. 5 committee that the last five bridge beams were set on Aug. 3 and estimated completion by Sept. 30. The project remained on the Nov. 4 agenda. Whether it met that deadline is unclear.

Other projects

Thomas More Parkway repaving, also grant-funded, received a notice to proceed from KYTC for survey work as of August. The agenda also listed an update on nearby work by a St. Elizabeth Healthcare contractor. Woodspoint Drive repaving and grant-funded Centre View Boulevard repaving rounded out the list.

The next committee meeting is Dec. 2.
