Major Roads
Several major North - South routes were improved during the 1990s, helping to connect the region with the major cities of the Bluegrass and Ohio, besides Interstates 65 and 75, and providing routes to popular tourist attractions like Lake Cumberland. These roads south of Cumberland Parkway have not been improved and thus access with northern Tennessee is limited.

Famous quotes containing the words major and/or roads:
“Self-centeredness is a natural outgrowth of one of the toddler’s major concerns: What is me and what is mine...? This is why most toddlers are incapable of sharing ... to a toddler, what’s his is what he can get his hands on.... When something is taken away from him, he feels as though a piece of him—an integral piece—is being torn from him.”
—Lawrence Balter (20th century)
“This, my first [bicycle] had an intrinsic beauty. And it opened for me an era of all but flying, which roads emptily crossing the airy, gold-gorsy Common enhanced. Nothing since has equalled that birdlike freedom.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
