Periodic Safety Checkpoints
The Pikeville Police Department will be conducting periodic traffic safety checkpoints at designated locations throughout 2025. Pikeville Police Department strives daily to promote safer roadways for those we serve. A common and proactive measure to achieve this includes roadside safety checkpoints and saturating known problematic areas within the city. The intent of a traffic safety checkpoint is to provide a high visibility public safety service, with an increased focus on issues ensuring good order on the roadway. These areas of focus during the checkpoints will include occupant protection and seatbelt adherence, sobriety and proper licensing of operators, valid insurance status, as well as other violations of the Kentucky Revised Statutes that may arise during the interaction. All traffic safety checkpoints will be conducted at supervisory approved locations and in adherence to Kentucky Revised Statutes and agency policies. Checkpoints will provide just a momentary delay for those operating on our roadways in a safe and legal manner. Potential traffic safety checkpoint locations as follows:
-Cedar Creek Rd and Cedar Hills Dr intersection
-Island Creek Rd near Island Creek Clinic
-Chloe Rd near Pikeville Elementary School and Bypass Rd
-Town Mountain Rd near 997 Town Mountain Rd and US-119 intersection
-US23 & Cassidy Boulevard Traffic Lights
-US-460 and US-23 intersection
-Hambley Boulevard/Bypass Rd in various locations
Pikeville Police Department is hopeful that through traffic safety checkpoints and numerous other traffic patrol measures, we can provide safer roadway conditions for our citizens, as well as our guests. In doing so, we can lower the frequency of intoxicated drivers, deter potential collisions and injuries to motorists, and accomplish a better Pikeville. Please contact Pikeville Police Department immediately if you observe unsafe driving practices or potentially criminal acts by dialing 911 in case of emergency, or (606) 437-5111 for all non-emergency issues.

The Police, Fire Department and 911 Dispatch combine their efforts to provide Christmas gifts to less fortunate families during the Christmas Holiday. In 2022 we had the privilege to serve 45 local children and their families throughout the county. We provide not only gifts, but we hold a breakfast for the entire family. During this event we play games, eat, and enjoy each others company for the day. Each family receives Christmas dinner in a box, so that their families can enjoy a meal at home on Christmas Day. We are thankful for the many businesses and persons that help sponsor these events. If you are interested in donating to the Christmas with a First Responder program, please visit the Pikeville Police Station at 111 Scotty Hamilton Way, Pikeville, KY 41501 or call (606) 437-5111.
