Kentucky Restricts Residents’ Travel To Other States

ky-travel

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has advised Kentuckians to limit ALL unnecessary travel to fight the spread of COVID-19. An executive order was issued on Monday to restrict Kentucky residents’ travel to other states.

According to a press release from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, the safest place for you to be is your own home. Travel to other states is ONLY permitted for work, groceries, medicine, or other necessary supplies, to see a licensed medical provider, to care for loved ones, or when required by court order.

Kentuckians who return to the Commonwealth from non-permitted travels are required to self-quarantine for 14 days. Those traveling out of state for allowed reasons listed above, including commercial truck drivers, are not required to self-quarantine but should limit their contact with others as much as possible and stringently follow CDC guidelines regarding COVID-19. 

No roads or bridges in Kentucky are closed due to the virus.
