The densely-populated northern part of Kentucky (which is serviced out of our Cincinnati local), is growing rapidly, providing our members with plenty of work opportunities.
Contractors in other parts of the state have ongoing projects with steady demand.
In Lexington and Louisville, there are good prospects for more commercial and industrial work as we move into 2019 and later. Larger projects include a convention center in Lexington, and a Toyota plant work In Georgetown coming in the early spring 2019.
In the Louisville area, we expect an increase in commercial work as well as a project to expand the UPS distribution hub. We also get plenty of work from shutdowns at the area’s two large Ford assembly plants. We get shutdown work from the GM Corvette plant in Bowling Green and the Toyota plant in Georgetown.
