Route description

Blankenbaker Parkway originates at a junction with KY 155 in a residential area east of Jeffersontown. It travels northward as a divided two-lane road before becoming a four-lane divided roadway as it curves toward the northeast at a junction with KY 913 Spur. Blankenbaker Parkway then curves back toward the north and passes through an industrial area. After forming a junction with Plantside Drive, Blankenbaker Parkway becomes three lanes in both directions, passing through a commercial area with many businesses, restaurants, and hotels lining the roadway. After passing over I-64, Blankenbaker Parkway narrows to two lanes in both directions and passes by the main campus of Southeast Christian Church, one of the largest churches in the United States. It forms a concurrency with KY 1819 at the northeast corner of the church property and carries this concurrency for 0.586 miles (0.943 km) to its northern terminus at US 60.

Major intersections

The entire route is in Jefferson County.
