Kentucky Route 183 (KY 183), known locally as Lock Road, is a rural, secondary east–west state route located entirely in Edmonson County, Kentucky. This route is 1.284 miles (2.066 km) long. Like some four-digit state highways in rural areas of Kentucky, KY 183 only has one lane.
Route description
KY 183 begins at an intersection with the concurrent JY 70/KY 259. KY 183 goes under the Green River bridge carrying the other two routes over the river into downtown Brownsville. The end of state maintenance is about a fraction of a mile short of the Green River Lock and Dam Number 6.
KY 183 is designated to be a back road that would link the city of Brownsville to Alexander Cemetery, and the lock and dam, which is operated by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Only a few residences exist in the first half mile of the route. Due to the route being so close to the river, it is often flood prone.
