6401 Shirley Ave encroachment permit issued for curb lane closure and dirt cut

Derek Wilkins with Louisville Gas & Electric Company is set to repair a gas leak at 6401 Shirley Ave; the property is owned by Otis F. Brown Sr. The job calls for a single 3' x 5' dirt cut and an eastbound curb-lane closure on Shirley Ave between River Way Drive and River Road, scheduled for April 1–29, 2026, so expect a temporary curb-lane squeeze. Cuts will be restored under the LMPW utility restoration policy, and Project Engineer James George is listed as the technical contact for the project.
