2010 Map of McBrayer

About this map

The Salt River winds through this central Kentucky landscape, carving a serpentine path past The Mound and the settlement of McBrayer. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including Cheese Lick, Log Lick, and Buchanan Creek, which feed into the river system. This area reflects a traditional rural settlement pattern where small communities like Fox Creek, Ballard, and Nevin are connected by a web of local routes such as Dugansville Rd and Bardstown Rd. The modern infrastructure of the Bluegrass Pkwy cuts a straight line across these established drainage basins, juxtaposing late 20th-century transportation needs with the older, water-dependent geography of Kirkwood and Vanarsdell. This survey captures the region as the US Route 127 Bypass began to alter local traffic flow near the eastern edge of the quadrangle.
