About the Western Kentucky Parkway
The Wendell H. Ford Western Kentucky Parkway is a 98.5-mile-long (158.5 km) freeway running from Elizabethtown to near Nortonville, Kentucky. It intersects with Interstate 65 (I-65) at its eastern terminus, and I-69 at its western terminus. It is one of seven highways that are part of the Kentucky parkway system. The road was renamed for Wendell H. Ford, a former Kentucky governor and United States senator, in 1998. Previously, it was simply the Western Kentucky Parkway, and often called the "WK Parkway" or "the WK" because of the initials that were once used on its signs prior to the 1998 renaming. The parkway carries the unsigned designation Kentucky Route 9001 for its entire length.

About this route in 3D
Open the designer and the real Western Kentucky Parkway becomes a solid topographic model: the route rides on top of true elevation terrain, surrounding peaks and valleys included, with automatic place labels for the towns and landmarks along the way.
Everything is editable. Swap in your own dates, rename the labels, change the base shape, or replace the route entirely with the trip YOU took. The model you see is the model you get, as a watertight file ready for any 3D printer, or as a finished print made by us.
How it works
- Open the Western Kentucky Parkway in our 3D designer. Real terrain, real elevation, in your browser.
- Make it yours: use your own route, dates, labels, size and shape.
- Download the printable STL file, or order a finished 3D print. We ship to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
Common questions
- Is this the real terrain of the Western Kentucky Parkway?
- Yes. The 3D model is built from real elevation data, so every climb, ridge and valley along the Western Kentucky Parkway appears at true relative height.
- Can I use my own route instead?
- Yes. The designer accepts your Google Timeline export, geo-tagged photos, or a route you draw by hand. The Western Kentucky Parkway is just the starting point.
- How do I get the finished model?
- Two ways: download a printable STL or GLB file for your own 3D printer, or order a finished print and we make it and ship it. We deliver to 50 countries, with optional wood frame and LED base.
- Can I download the Western Kentucky Parkway as an STL file for my own 3D printer?
- Yes. The printable STL (or GLB) file of the Western Kentucky Parkway costs $10, one token, and is watertight and ready to slice. You can also change the size, base shape and labels before you export it.
