Community expresses concerns about Boone County intersection where 2 people died

BOONE COUNTY, Ky. — There's a lot of conversation about road safety in Boone County after two people died in a crash that ended with a dump truck slamming into a restaurant. Neighbors are concerned with how dangerous the intersection is and want to see something done. "How many people have to get hurt or die before someone can change something," Boone County Commissioner Jesse Brewer said. Since April of 2020, there have been 25 crashes at the intersection where Tuesday's fatal crash took place, according to the Boone County Sheriff's Office.

"You shouldn't have to gamble with your life driving on some of these roads. Sometimes it feels like that," Brewer said.

Brewer wants to see something done. A transportation meeting later this month will address traffic safety concerns.
