During late 2014 and early 2015, the purpose of construction of KY 3600 was to provide another bypass route to ease up congestion on the US 31E By-pass, the major artery through the city. The project also included a fourth interchange on the Louie B. Nunn Cumberland Parkway. The project was completed on May 28, 2015, and the grand opening took place on June 4 of that year.[2][3]
