1140 Barret Ave issued for LGE gas work, curb lane closure

Louisville Gas & Electric Company, via applicant Zachary Mark Lambertus, will close the southbound curb lane on Barret Ave between Ellison Ave and Rufer Ave to perform a single 3' x 5' dirt cut to repair a gas leak at 1140 Barret Ave; the encroachment permit has been issued with work scheduled May 8–June 5, 2026. Project engineer James George is listed as the contact, the property owner is Land Forrest H, and the work is a small excavation—expect a brief lane closure but no full road or sidewalk shutdown.
